TIANAO LI - 李天骜

I am a first-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Northwestern University, advised by Prof. Emma Alexander. Previously, I received my B.Eng. in Electronic Engineering with a minor in Astronomy at Tsinghua University magna cum laude. During my undergraduate study, I was fortunate to work with Prof. Lu Fang, Prof. Emma Alexander, and Prof. Cheng Ma. My research interest lies at the intersection of computational imaging, computer vision, signal processing, machine learning, and optimization. I'm especially interested in inverse problems, bio-inspired vision, and astronomical imaging.

Outside of research, I enjoy playing basketball and amateur astronomy. I spent four wonderful years at the Tsinghua Astronomy Society as a core member. I'm also a huge fan of the Golden State Warriors 🏆🏆🏆🏆 and the HARRY POTTER series.
