My research lies at the interface of operations research, statistics, machine learning, and economics. I am also interested in real-world problems arising from online platforms, including A/B tests, recommendation systems, online advertising, blockchains, etc.
I will be joining HKUST IEDA as an assistant professor in July 2024!
