Hi, I am a (tenure-track) assistant research fellow in the Institute of Statistical Science at Academia Sinica.

My research interests include, but not restricted to

- spatial point processes,
- time series analysis,
- and applied probability focusing on the spectral properties of Toeplitz matrices.

I am seeking a full-time RA (at any level) or a Postdoctoral Scholar working on the topic of spatial point processes. If you are interested, please send me an email with your CV and the contact information of one reference (for master's level or below) or two references (for doctoral level or above). See the job description.
I can also support a short-term visit (1 month to 6 months) for current domestic or international graduate students. Please send me the relevant documents listed above, along with the intended duration and a paragraph long statement on your goals for the visit.
