About

Hi there! I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Datta Lab in the Department of Neurobiology, Harvard Medical School. I did my PhD in Brain and Cognitive Sciences at the University of Rochester with Greg DeAngelis, during which I studied how the primate visual system infers 3D scene structure (e.g., motion and depth) during active movements using electrophysiology, psychophysics, and computational models. Before that, I majored in Mechanical Engineering at Tongji Univerisity in Shanghai, China. I once considered designing wood-drilling machines for a living but gave up due to mediocre drawing skills. I am now interested in solving the brain, particularly the neural circuits underlying active sensing and sensorimotor control in natural behaviors. Besides science, I enjoy swimming, photography, reading, cooking, hiking, and traveling.
