For prospective students
I am currently accepting graduate (Master) students at my own institution, and occasionally help supervise students (both Master and Ph.D.) from other institutions in Beijing.
If your research interests overlap with mine (see this page for details) and you would like to work with me, please contact me via email — attaching your CV is preferred.
For current students
I usually designate one weekday as the student day. For Fall 2025, it is Thursday. Feel free to schedule office hours with me before 3 pm on that day :-)
For work–life-balance reasons, I prefer to be contacted via email. I usually reply within 24–48 hours on weekdays and within 48–72 hours on weekends or public holidays.
