But here it is working fine.

Since you are working with homepage component, the standard merge notation wont work and it will just take it as literal string.

You have to write a class, and invoke the same using connection.js, this way you will be able to get the user detail.

Additionally I am not sure about the requirement, you can always use a VF page that is fetched in Homepage component as a IFRAME
