Short Bio
Hi, I recently joined the University of Colorado Boulder and Harvard University as a joint postdoctoral fellow, working within the Ultra-Quantum Matter collaboration from Sept. 2024. I'm currently based in Boston. I obtained Ph.D. degree in Physics at University of California San Diego in 2024, working mainly in condensed matter theory. My Ph.D. advisor is Prof. Yi-Zhuang You. I achieved my Bachelor's degree in Physics from Nanjing University in 2018.
My interests mainly lie in condensed matter systems, where rich phenomena emerge from fundamental rules and elements. These rules and elements have deep connections to high energy theory and mathematics.
