Dr Canzhong Wu conducted his doctoral work on the development of computational tools for modeling language within a systemic functional framework, based at Macquarie University. He is a Lecturer in the Department of Linguistics, and a Visiting Researcher at the Everyday Language Computing Laboratory, RIKEN, Tokyo. He has been centrally involved in a range of projects within the Meaning Modelling Group/ CLSL since 1995, and continues to be engaged in developing and conducting research projects within the centre and its partners, producing increasingly explicit, computationally realizable, models of discourse across strata and with applications across a range of social contexts.

Dr Wu has an extensive research interest, ranging from translation studies to discourse analysis, from corpus development and management to corpus linguistics, from natural language processing to development of computational tools for multilingual grammatical reference resources, from web development to online course delivery and distance learning and instruction.
