Training & Education
Between 2021--2023, I was a postdoc research fellow at Harvard Biostatistics, working for Dr. Rui Duan. We developed statistical and machine learning methods that facilitate robust and efficient data integration to improve precision health for underrepresented populations.
I received my Ph.D. of Biostatistics from the University of Michigan in 2021, co-advised by Drs. Jeremy Taylor and Bhramar Mukherjee.
Before that, I received my dual Bachelor’s degrees from Colorado State University and East China Normal University through a 2+2 dual-degree program, where I finished my junior and senior years in the US.
