Hi! I’m Bo Sun, an M.S. student in Computer Science at Northeastern University’s Silicon Valley campus. I’m also a research assistant at the Human-Centered AI Lab, advised by Prof. Dakuo Wang.
My research focuses on how people and AI systems work together, including using LLM agents to simulate real users[1][3], testing how well LLM agents collaborate with each other[2], and designing AI tools that educators and clinicians can trust[4][5][6]. I build the systems I study, from multi-agent simulation frameworks to clinical dashboards and voice agents for patients.

Education
I’m currently pursuing my M.S. in Computer Science at Khoury College of Computer Sciences, Northeastern University (Silicon Valley campus), where I also work as a research assistant advised by Prof. Dakuo Wang.
I got my B.Eng. in Information Security at Beijing University of Technology. Before that, I finished high school at The Experimental High School Attached to Beijing Normal University（北京师范大学附属实验中学）.
