Dr. Yuen obtained a BSc (1st Hons) in computing math in 2003 and a MPhil in math in 2006 from the City University of Hong Kong; a MSc in math in 2004 and a PGDE in math education in 2007 from the Chinese University of Hong Kong; and a Ph.D. in applied math from the Hong Kong Polytechnics University in 2012, under the supervision of Prof. Kwong Man Kam, an ISI most highly cited mathematician 2001.

Dr. Yuen has been a Hong Kong registered teacher since 2007. From 2003-07 he was a part-time instructor, teaching Project Yijin math in Caritas Institute of Further and Adult Education in Kowloon; a full-time lecturer of math and statistics courses in the Hang Seng School of Commerce from 2007-08; and a tutor of undergraduate math courses in the City University of Hong Kong from 2004-06 and the Hong Kong Polytechnics University from 2008-09. Dr Yuen had been the field experience coordinator (Math) in 2014-21. Dr Yuen has been the programs leader in the Certificates in Professional Development Programs in Emerging Technologies (E-Learning) in Primary and Secondary Chinese since 2016.

Dr. Yuen's research interest is applied analysis of nonlinear partial differential equations, specially involving blowup phenomena and similar solutions. Dr. Yuen's 80 journal papers (with 70 SCI or SSCI) were published by 40 international Math and Physics journals, including Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation, Journal of Mathematical Physics, Applied Mathematics Letters, Nonlinear Analysis and Studies in Applied Mathematics. His published papers have accumulated 698 citations and a H-index 16 from Scopus.


Meanwhile, he has also published 2 academic books. He is also a senior editor of the International Journal of Numerical Methods and Applications and an editorial board member in the International Journal of Partial Differential Equations and Applications and the International Journal of Applied & Experimental Mathematics.
