I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Statistics & Actuarial Science at the University of Hong Kong. I received my PhD in Biostatistics from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2023, co-advised by Drs. Danyu Lin and Donglin Zeng. Before that, I graduated with a BS in Statistics from the University of Science & Technology of China in 2018.

Research Interests

My primary research interests lie in survival analysis and semiparametric inference. Recent work includes semiparametric regression analysis of interval-censored multi-state data, evaluation of COVID-19 vaccine/treatment effectiveness, joint modeling of multi-state and longitudinal data, and transfer learning for high-dimensional survival data.

In addition, I am broadly interested in statistical applications to Alzheimer’s disease, breast cancer, mental disorders, and oral diseases.
