Biography
Shunbo received his B.Eng. degree from Huazhong University of Science and Technology in 2013, and Ph.D. degree from The University of Hong Kong (HKU) in 2017. He was a visiting scholar with Argonne National Laboratory from 2015 to 2017. He worked as a postdoctoral researcher at HKU from 2017 to 2019, and then a research fellow at the University of Michigan (UM)-Ann Arbor from 2019 to 2021. He is currently an assistant professor at The Chinese University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen. His research interests lie broadly in power and energy, optimization and learning.
Shunbo is currently serving as the Secretary for IEEE PES SBLC Loads Subcommittee, the Chair for IEEE PES SBLC Task Force on FlexGEB to Enhance Electric Service Resilience, and an Editorial Board Member for Energy Reports. He has served as a TPC member for conferences including IEEE SmartGridComm and IET RPG. He has also (co-)chaired panel sessions at events including IEEE PES GM and IEEE iSPEC. He received the IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid Best Reviewer Award in 2018, 2019 and 2021, the U.S. Navy’s Office of Naval Research-UM College of Engineering - Research Mentoring Award in 2020, the?UM Postdoctoral Association - Professional Development Award in 2021, and the 4TU Centre for Resilience Engineering (Netherlands) - Young Resilience Fellowship in 2021.
