Wei Zhan 占玮

Welcome! I am an assistant professor at Purdue University. Previously I was a Chicago Prize Postdoctoral Fellow hosted by Bill Fefferman in the Department of Computer Science at University of Chicago. I received my Ph.D. from Princeton University, where I was honored to be advised by Ran Raz.

I am broadly interested in theoretical computer science, specifically in complexity theory and quantum information. Currently I am focusing on understanding the power of quantum mechanics and randomness with limited computational resources such as small space complexity or shallow circuits.

If you are a Purdue student interested in working with me, please reach out to me by email.
