Haolei Weng

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Statistics and Probability at Michigan State Uninversity. My research interests lie in the fields of high-dimensional statistics and statistical machine learning.

Prior to MSU, I was a postdoctoral research associate in the Department of Operations Research and Financial Engineering at Princeton University, advised by Professor Jianqing Fan. In 2017, I completed my Ph.D. in Statistics at Columbia University, advised by Professors Yang Feng and Arian Maleki. Before going to Columbia, I received a B.S. in Statistics from University of Science and Technology of China, where I wrote my undergraduate thesis under the supervision of Professor Yaning Yang.
