I am an Assistant Teaching Professor at the University of Michigan – Shanghai Jiao Tong University Joint Institute (JI), and an Invited Researcher at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid.
I was formerly a Postdoctoral Instructor of Mathematics at Shanghai New York University, China, in the NYU-ECNU Institute of Mathematical sciences. I hold a PhD from the École Normale Supérieure de Lyon and Inria Rhône-Alpes, under the supervision of Vincent Calvez, Hugues Berry, and Thomas Lepoutre.
I conduct research in mathematics inspired by biological systems and applications. My main expertise is in asymptotic analysis of integro-partial differential equations, Hamilton-Jacobi equations, numerical analysis, stochastic variational inequalities, and mathematical modelling in biology: anomalous diffusion, brain-bacteria interactions, and non-smooth systems. I am currently the supervisor of one PhD student.
I am a member of the Modeling, Data Analysis and Computational Methods in Biology Research Group, based at Univ. Complutense de Madrid and Univ. of Torino, and a participant in two grants from the National Science Foundation of China: NSFC 12272237 – Convection and fluid-structure interactions in geological phase transitions – PI: Mac Huang; and NSFC 1227012036: Modeling, Diffusion Approximation, and Stochastic Control of Nonsmooth Systems – PI: Laurent Mertz.
I have most recently taught Calculus I, Multivariable Calculus and ODE at the JI, as well as Introduction to Multivariable Calculus, Mathematical Modelling and Linear Algebra at NYU Shanghai. I have been nominated for the Teaching Excellence Award 2022/2023
