I am currently a Quantitative Researcher at Citadel Securities.

In May 2024, I completed my Ph.D. in Computer Science at University of Illinois Urbana Champaign (UIUC). My advisor is Prof. Jimeng Sun. I also closely worked with Prof. M. Brandon Westover from Harvard Medical School and Beth Israel. My research focused on building deep learning models for electronic health records (EHR), EEG sleep staging and seizure detection . Relevant techniques are (not limited to) tensor decomposition, self-supervised learning, domain generalization.

In July 2019, I finished my bachelor's degree at Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU). I was born in a beautiful city, Shaoxing, Zhejiang and stayed there before college.
