About Me

I am interested in a wide range of computational social science topics, include examining how gender and racial identities affect scientific careers, leading to population-level disparities. I also investigate the formation and evolution of human behaviors and opinions, particularly under media and peer influence. Utilizing large-scale data, my research employs statistical methods such as machine learning, network analysis, and natural language processing.

Currently I'm an Associate Research Scientist at the Paul and Marcia Wythes Center on Contemporary China, Princeton University. Prior to my current role, I was a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Center for Complex Network Research, Northeastern University. I hold a PhD in Computer Science from Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and a Bachelor's degree in Physics from Tsinghua University.
