Before coming to Penn State, I spent two years as a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Statistics at UC Irvine.

My current research focus are:

• Network Science: Complex network analysis, information diffusion, hypergraph modeling
• Casual inference: Causal inference on graph, causal mediation analysis, applied causal inference for social science (e.g., peer effect)
• Statistical Machine learning: optimal-transport-based data integration, active learning
