Yajie Bao

Welcome to my homepage! I am currently a postdoc scholar at School of Statistics and Data Science, Nankai University. My advisor is Prof. Changliang Zou. I obtained my PhD degree in Statistics from Shanghai Jiao Tong University under the supervision of Prof. Dong Han and Prof. Haojie Ren. I virtually visited Prof. Mingrui Liu's lab at George Mason University from 2022-2024. I received my B.S. degree in Statistics from East China Normal University.
