I am an assistant professor in the Computer Science Department of Columbia University. Before joining Columbia, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton University
and University of Southern California.

I studied in Tsinghua University (B.S. in Physics/Maths 03 and Ph.D.
in Computer Science 07). My advisor was Professor Bo Zhang, and I
was a member of the Institute for Theoretical Computer Science led
by Professor Andrew Chi-Chih Yao.

My research interests lie in Algorithmic Game Theory / Economics and Complexity Theory. My research is supported by NSF CCF-1139915 and the start-up from Columbia. I recently received an NSF CAREER award

and a Sloan research fellowship.
