Robotics & Embodiment AI Lab (REAL) @ Stanford University

Hi! I am Yihuai Gao (高义淮), a second-year Ph.D. student in EE Department, Stanford University. I’m fortunate to be advised by Prof. Shuran Song in the field of robot learning. I’m broadly interested in building robot systems and training robot manipulation policies.

Prior to Stanford, I obtained a dual bachelor’s degree (B.Eng in EE and B.S. in Math) from Tsinghua University in 2023, where I worked with Prof. Bowen Zhou and Prof. Heng Yang (at Harvard). I also had a great summer working with Prof. Dirk Englund at MIT in 2022.
