Hi! I am Wenyuan Xu (pronounced “wen-ywen shoo”), a postdoctoral researcher in Anders Møller’s group at Aarhus University, where I also completed my Ph.D. under his supervision. Before my Ph.D., I worked as a Security Engineer in Alibaba Security Department.
My research interests include program analysis and software security.

Other Interests
- I enjoy reading novels. Flowers for Algernon, Gone with the Wind, and Fortress Besieged (围城) are among my favourites.
- I am also interested in anime, films, and TV series. Many of my favourites are Japanese works, such as From the New World (新世界より), Shiroi Kyotō (白い巨塔), and Tokyo Love Story (東京ラブストーリー). I also like some Western works, including Titanic and Black Mirror.
- I would be glad to hear from people with similar interests, and recommendations for related works are always welcome!
