Dr. Wenjing Zhang is an Assistant Professor in the School of Computer Science at the University of Guelph, Canada. She holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Guelph (2024) and was a visiting research scholar at the University of Arizona's Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (2016–2018). Her research focuses on cybersecurity in AI/ML, including security threats to models, privacy-preserving techniques, and data privacy in generative AI. She leads projects on robust defenses against adversarial attacks, secure federated learning, and privacy-preserving prompt engineering for LLMs. Dr. Zhang’s research areas include: Security in AI/ML (e.g., poisoning, evasion, prompt injection attacks) Model Privacy (protection of internal parameters) Data Privacy (synthetic data generation, privacy-preserving prompt engineering) She has secured a five-year NSERC Discovery Grant (2025–2030) for her research on enhancing security, privacy, and fairness in generative AI. Her work has been published in top-tier venues such as NeurIPS, IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Security, and IEEE Transactions on Communications. She is a recipient of the 2022 Westin Scholar Award and serves on technical committees for IEEE conferences including CNS 2025 and ICC 2025. Her team collaborates on interdisciplinary projects involving federated learning, information theory, and reinforcement learning. She actively seeks partnerships in security, privacy, and generative AI applications.
