About me

Welcome! I am currently a PhD candidate (and receiving Research Fellowship for Young Scientists from JSPS, or 日本学術振興会特別研究員DC1 in Japanese) from the Lab of Mathematical Biology and Bioengineering within the Department of Human and Engineered Environmental Studies, GSFS, UTokyo, under the supervision of Prof. Kotani. I earned my bachelor’s degree in physics from Jilin University and completed my master’s course at the School of Engineering, University of Tokyo. My research interest lies in computational neuroscience, particularly in exploring the biological plausibility of Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) and employing them to simulate cognitive functions.

Profile in Japanese: 2023年東京大学大学院工学系研究科精密工学専攻修士課程修了．現在，同大学院新領域創成科学研究科博士課程在学中．スパイキングニューラルネットワーク(SNNs)を用いて神経回路によって生じる計算能力のメカニズムの研究に従事. 生成モデルによる脳波で演奏する新しい楽器の開発に従事．日本電気学会の学生会員，学振特別研究員DC1．
