About Me
I am a postdoctoral researcher and EACOA Fellow at the Academia Sinica Institute of Astronomy and Astrophysics (ASIAA), studying galaxy clusters and dark matter through gravitational lensing. I develop MARS and MrMARTIAN, two lensing mass reconstruction methods, and apply them to JWST, HST, and wide-field observations. I use strong and weak lensing to map mass distributions from dense cluster cores to the surrounding large-scale structure. By combining lensing mass reconstruction with multiwavelength observations, I study how massive galaxy clusters assemble and evolve.
