Summary
Nan Li is a Research Fellow at the University of Nottingham with 11 years of experience in astrophysics and cosmology, specializing in simulations and gravitational lensing. She has held postdoctoral positions at The University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory, where she developed simulation pipelines for strong and weak lensing studies. Currently she focuses on applying machine learning to automate lens finding and modeling for next-generation imaging surveys. Trained with a PhD in Astrophysics from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences and a background in industrial mechanics, she combines computational rigor with practical engineering instincts. Her work bridges theoretical simulation, scalable analysis, and ML-driven pipeline development to accelerate discovery in observational cosmology.
