ZHILING GU

About me

Welcome to my website! My name is Zhiling Gu. I am currently a postdoctoral associate at Yale School of Public Health, advised by Professor Yize Zhao. 

Prior to this, I obtained my Ph.D. degree in Statistics at Iowa State University (ISU) in 2024, advised by Professor Lily Wang and Professor Dan Nettleton.

I am on the job market for tenure-track assistant professor positions in Fall 2025.

Motivated by theoretical and practical needs arising from large-scale, complex structured data and advanced ML/AI algorithms, my research focuses on developing interpretable and scalable statistical methods that integrate statistical methodology with artificial intelligence to advance Trustworthy AI for scientific discovery and decision making. 

With expertise in functional data analysis, network analysis, spatiotemporal modeling, and semiparametric learning, I aim to develop reliable and interpretable AI grounded in statistical theory. Please visit Research page for more details.
