I am a Ph.D. student in Information Studies at the School of Information, UT Austin, working in the AI Health Lab under the supervision of Professor Ying Ding. Before joining Professor Ding’s team, I collaborated with Doctor Yi Bu at the Department of Information Management, Peking University.
My aspiration is to become a computational social scientist, leveraging data from sources such as PubMed, arXiv, and social media to uncover patterns and solutions in scholarly communications and healthcare.
I also aim to become an educator, teaching complex concepts in an engaging and easily understandable manner.
I am eagerly looking forward to an academic career that combines research and teaching after completing my Ph.D.
I am a fan of cultures from all around the world and a passionate basketball enthusiast. My Chinese name is 许家伟.
