Hui SUN is a research assistant at the National Astronomical Observatories (NAO), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). Before that, she stayed at NAOC as a post-doc during the years of 2017-2021. She received her Ph.D. degree from Peking University in 2017, under the supervisions of Professor Bing Zhang and Zhuo Li. She stayed as an exchange student at University of Nevada, Las Vegas during 2014-2015 and late 2016.

Her research focuses on the extragalactic high energy transients including gamma-ray burst, binary neutron star merger magnetar powered X-ray emissions, SN shock breakouts and tidal disruption events, etc. She is also a team member of Einstein Probe, which is an X-ray mission of CAS dedicated to time-domain high-energy astrophysics and plan to launch by late 2023.
