About me

I am currently an Assistant Professor at the Department of Electronic Engineering in Tsinghua University. My research interests lie in the interdisciplinary area of Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Social Computing and Urban Science, aiming to develop scientific methods and algorithmic tools to address the long-standing puzzles in the complex networks arising from human dynamics and social interactions. My research focuses on fully exploiting the opportunities offered by recent data explosion, and pushing forward the boundary of human dynamics, urban science and social network research with novel Data Science/AI techniques.

Prior to my current position, I was a postdoc scholar at the University of Chicago, co-advised by Prof. James Evans and Prof. Luis Bettencourt. I obtained my Ph.D. in Electronic Engineering from Tsinghua University in 2020, under the supervision of Prof. Yong Li.

Prospective Students:

Our lab has several open research positions for prospective graduate students (Ph.D./Master programs) and undergraduate research interns. We are looking for self-motivated students to work together on various exciting data science projects. If you are interested, please drop me an email with your CV.
