About
Before embarking on his PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Haoyu completed his undergraduate studies in the same field at Boston University, followed by a Master's in Mechanical Engineering at Columbia University. He has had a profound interest in Biomechanics, which led him to join the Musculoskeletal Biomechanics Lab. His passion particularly lies in the study of cartilage biomechanics, as well as the wear and damage of articular cartilage. Following his Master's at Columbia, he immediately began his PhD at the MBL in the spring of 2024. In his free time, Haoyu enjoys a range of sports, including tennis, badminton, squash, golf, and ping pong.
