About Me
I am an observational cosmologist based at Pittsburgh, USA. I am a graduate student at McWilliams Center for Cosmology, Carnegie Mellon University. This fall, I will join University of Pittsburgh Department of Physics and Astronomy as a Research Assistant Professor.
Prior to grad school, I did my undergrad at Duke University and Shanghai Jiao Tong University. I was passionate about Astronomy since high school.
Outside research, I spend my time building both local and international Astronomy community, to make Astronomy more accessible and inclusive to everyone.
Research
My research studies weak gravitational lensing, by utilizing statistical and machine learning methods to extract information from large photometric survey dataset, such as the Vera R. Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) and the Subaru Telescope's Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC).
Point Spread Function (PSF)
Image Simulation
Bayesian Weak Lensing Inference
Clustering and Galaxy-Galaxy Lensing
