Weiwei Zhu is an experienced pulsar astronomer and researcher with 15 years probing neutron stars and testing fundamental physics through precision pulsar timing. Currently at the National Astronomical Observatories of China and based in Vancouver, she combines observational campaigns on world-class radio telescopes with X-ray analysis from space observatories to hunt new pulsars and constrain gravitational theories. Her career spans postdoctoral work at Max Planck and UBC and a PhD from McGill, reflecting deep expertise in timing, imaging, and statistical analysis of high-magnetic-field pulsars and magnetars. Colleagues rely on her for both hands-on telescope campaigns and rigorous data-driven inference, and she brings the rare perspective of having worked extensively with Arecibo and Green Bank datasets.
