Profile

I joined the University of Leeds in June 2024, where my responsibilities are focused on student education in mathematics. I am also a member of the Department of Statistics.

Research interests

My research interests lie in the field of stochastic analysis, particularly stochastic differential equations and their modelling applications. My recent work has been focused on probabilistic solutions of free-boundary problems, diffusion-limited aggregations, mean-field systems and integrate-and-fire models in computational neuroscience.

Qualifications

PhD Mathematics, University of Edinburgh, 2017.
MSc Financial Modelling & Optimisation, University of Edinburgh, 2011.
BSc Mathematics, Fudan University, 2010.

Student education

I lead undergraduate modules and supervise student projects. I also supervise MSc dissertation projects.
