Han Peng is a staff research scientist and techlead manager with nine years of experience bridging academic deep learning research and production AI at scale. Trained as a physicist (PhD, Oxford), he achieved world-record results in MRI-based brain age and sex prediction and transitioned to industry roles at Google and Ant Group, where he now leads teams building reasoning, coding, and agent capabilities for an open-source multimodal foundation model. His background spans computer vision for automated inspection, LLM agents for data analytics, and scientific software tooling, giving him a rare fluency in both scientific rigor and product-driven engineering. Based in China, he combines hands-on model development, pre- and post-training strategy optimization, and team growth—often applying techniques from experimental physics to data curation and model evaluation.
