I am a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Pennsylvania, working with Alex Levis and Nandita Mitra. I received Ph.D. in Statistics from the University of Wisconsin-Madison where I was advised by Hyunseung Kang. Prior to coming to Madison, I received B.S. in Statistics from the School of Mathematical Sciences at Nankai University in China.
My research interests include transportability/generalizability, sensitivity analysis, causal inference, and robust statistics.
