About me
๐ Hi, welcome to my homepage ~
I am a third-year undergraduate student majoring in Astronomy at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC, Class of 2023), and a member of the Wang Shouguan Talent Program in Astronomy.
I am broadly interested in Large-scale Structure, Dark Energy as well as Dark Matter, with a long-term goal of pursuing a PhD in physics or astronomy. I am currently interested in Effective Field Theory (EFT) of cosmology, especially of Large-Scale Structure (LSS) and Dark Energy (DE).
๐ง Research Strengths & Skills
As one of my advisors once told me:
โA good cosmologist should have a solid theoretical foundation, strong coding skills, and a good understanding of astronomical observations.โ
I have been striving to grow in all three areas throughout my undergraduate research journey.
๐ Theoretical Foundations
- Solid background in classical and modern physics, including general relativity and cosmology
- Strong self-learning ability and curiosity about modern theoretical developments
๐ป Coding & Computational Skills
- Python (NumPy, SciPy, Matplotlib)
- LaTeX (scientific writing, equations, CV formatting)
- Git, Shell, etc.
๐ญ Observational & Survey Literacy
- Currently studying Physical Cosmology
- Interested in connecting simulations with real survey strategies

๐ฏ Future Goals
I am preparing for graduate study and actively developing my research abilities in both theory and computation. I enjoy challenges, adapt quickly to new topics, and communicate clearly in both written and spoken settings.
๐ป Outside Science
In my free time, I enjoy:
- ๐ธ Badminton !
- ๐ Volleyball !
- ๐ต USTC Student Symphony Orchestra (As a percussionist).
(I am currently the president of USSO.)
