About me

I am an associate professor at BICMR (2018-).

I got my PhD at Stony Brook in 2011, advised by Prof. Jason Starr. After that, I spent three years at Caltech as a Taussky-Todd instructor (2011-2014), one semester visiting Bonn (Fall 2014), then held a CNRS position for about 3 years (2015.1-2018.3) in Grenoble, France. I moved back to China in March 2018.
