Research Team

I am always seeking motivated PhD candidates and research assistants (RA) to join my team. The ideal candidates will have a strong foundation in statistical theory and computational skills. Successful candidates will engage in cutting-edge research, benefit from an interdisciplinary environment, and contribute to advancements in both statistics and related fields.

I also accept international PhD students. If you are interested in doing a PhD with me, you should apply for  Guanghua School of Management  with the major in Statistics. Scholarships are also available. If you have any questions, please contact Guanghua School of Management’s international office at Tel: 86-10-62747052, 86-10-62747006 or via Email: iphd@gsm.pku.edu.cn. The International Student Division has its own evaluation procedure. Once you are enrolled, you could choose me as the supervisor. I am happy to share any information you want to know.

I list some of my RA main forces as below. My collaborator network is available at Google Scholar.
