Hui Chen is an Assistant Professor in the Division of Signals and Systems, Department of Electrical Engineering, at Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden. He is also affiliated with University College London (UCL) as a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow (supervised by Prof. Christos Masouros), and Chalmers University of Technology as a Staff Scientist (CROSSNET, led by Prof. Henk Wymeersch). He held a Senior Researcher position at Technology Innovation Institute (TII, UAE), Visiting Researcher positions at University of Toronto (UofT, Canada) and Nanyang Technological University (NTU, Singapore). He received the Ph.D. Degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) (Information System Lab, led by Prof. Tareq Al-Naffouri), Thuwal, Saudi Arabia, in Aug. 2021.

He has actively contributed to several EU projects, including 6G-DISAC, RISE-6G, HEXA-X-II, and HEXA-X, as well as several Swedish projects (e.g., 5GPOS, B5GPOS, DALOS-6G). He has published more than 80 journal and conference papers, 5 book chapters, 2 US patents, and 10+ EU project reports. He is the recipient of the European Union Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship (MSCA-PF) in 2025, the Swedish Vinnova Mobility Grant in 2024, Chalmers Area-of-Advance Transport Seed Funding in 2024, the Ericsson Research Grant in 2023, and the China National Scholarship (3 times). His research focuses on 5G/6G localization and sensing, distributed ISAC, and machine learning.
