Short Bio
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I earned my Ph.D. in Social and Decision Neuroscience from Caltech in 2019. Currently, I'm a research fellow at NIMH focusing on mood disorders. As a neural data scientist, I'm broadly interested in cognitive processes and decision making in humans. In particular, I study how decision-making behaviors are optimized under threat/social influence with ecologically inspired paradigms, fMRI techniques, and computational modeling.
I work primarily in R and Python and use libraries like NumPy, SciPy, SciKit-Image, SciKit-Learn, and TensorFlow. My work involves applying regression, clustering, predictive modeling, and data visualization to neural and behavioral datasets.
In my spare time, I enjoy Japanese literature and grand strategy games.

[08/2020] Started my research fellowship at NIMH.
[07/2019] Defended my Ph.D. thesis.
[03/2018] Two papers on "decision making under threat/social influence" got accepted into PNAS and JN respectively. Our research was featured on Caltech News.
[06/2017] Entered my 3rd year as a PhD student at Caltech.
[09/2016] Passed candidacy and received my M.A. at Columbia University. Moved to Caltech.
[02/2015] My paper on "Oxytocin's effects on social learning" got accepted into Human Brain Mapping.
[12/2014] 1st semester nearly ended. Gave my first-year talk to the entire department.
[09/2014] "Officially" started at Columbia University. PhD Grind on.
[03/2014] Accepted Columbia University's offer for graduate study in Cognitive Psychology.
[12/2013] I feel honored to be awarded as one of the Outstanding Students in my university, the highest honor for UESTC graduates. (10 out of around 4,500 undergraduates in 10’)
[08/2013] I was featured by Mitacs Globalink internship program about my research on computational modeling of cell migration.
[07/2013] Went to University of Manitoba and started to serve as a visiting research assistant here!
[06/2013] Short-term visit to NEMO group @ University of Bonn, Germany.
[03/2013] Our paper in 2013 Interdisciplinary Contest of Modelling was awarded Honorable Mention.
