I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) from 2022.
Between 2020 and 2022, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Biostatistics, Epidemiology and Informatics at University of Pennsylvania, advised by Professor Qi Long. Before moving to Penn, I received my Ph.D. in Biostatistics with a minor in Computer Science at UNC-Chapel Hill advised by Professors Wei Sun and Danyu Lin and my B.S. in Mathematics at Peking University.
