Qiushi Nie 🤗

Hi there, welcome!

I’m Qiushi Nie (聂秋实), currently pursuing master’s degree at Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) in the iMED research group supervised by Jiang Liu. I received my B.Eng. in Computer Science and Technology from SUSTech in 2022.

My research goal is to develop deep learning algorithms that can be applied to medical images to assist doctors in diagnosis and surgical planning and benefit people’s health. To this end, my interests lie at the intersection of deep learning, medical image analysis, and computer vision. Currently, I’m working on Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) segmentation.

As this is the last year of my master’s degree, I am now actively looking for PhD opportunities!

Highlights

Remarkably, I was teaching Java in SUSTech as a tutor and gained many compliments and support. Until now, nearly 1,600+ students (40% of total undergraduates) in SUSTech have taken my classes. And I’m enjoying teaching and helping noobs with fixing their bugs.

My research group, iMED, has just started to explore Education Intelligence, which aims to empower education with AI. I am one of the core members. I like to help others, and it would be even cooler if I could design an AI assistant to make help more convenient and timely!

Hobbies

Beyond academics, I have a wide range of interests. I enjoy singing and sometimes rap. I have performed on many big stages (though they weren’t actually that big, haha).

Recently, I’ve become fascinated with board games, particularly strategy ones like Ark Nova, for their strategic depth and requirement for long-term planning and rational competition.
