About Me

NYC, August 2022

I am Chi-Ning Chou (周紀寧), a Flatiron Research Fellow in Professor SueYeon Chung’s group in the Center for Computational Neuroscience at Flatiron Institute. I obtained my Ph.D. in the Theory of Computation Group at Harvard University in June 2023, and I was fortunate to have Professor Boaz Barak as my advisor. The title of my PhD thesis is The Computational Lens: from Quantum Physics to Neuroscience and it is available here.

I’m a scientist and theorist widely interested in computer science, physics, and neuroscience. Please visit this page on my research for more details!

Outside academics, I love all kinds of sports (especially baseball and including running, ping pong, badminton, volleyball, etc.) and enjoy cooking, reading, playing Go, and classical music (especially piano).
