I am a Tenure Track Assistant Professor in the Department of Statistics and Data Science, The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK). Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Associate in the Department of Biostatistics at the Yale School of Public Health, advised by Prof. Hongyu Zhao. I completed my PhD in Statistics under the supervision of Prof. Jean Yang, A/Prof. Rachel Wang and A/Prof. John Ormerod at the University of Sydney in 2022.
In the broad areas of statistics, data science and bioinformatics, the central theme of my research is to formulate the data science challenges motivated by biomedical and biotechnological data into computational problems and tackle them by developing novel statistical and AI methodologies as well as analytical workflows to enable new scientific discoveries in various diseases.
