Tianqi Zhang (张添淇)

I'm Tianqi Zhang, a first-year CS Ph.D. student at UNC Chapel Hill, advised by Mingyu Ding. I received my undergraduate degree from Tsinghua University, where I majored in Mathematics and Physics & Measurement Control Technology and Instruments. During my undergraduate studies, I interned in IDLab led by Shengbo Li. I was also very fortunate to have the opportunity to go to UC Berkeley for summer research at the end of my junior year, where I was advised by Masayoshi Tomizuka.
