Welcome to my homepage! I am Zhiyue Mo, a PhD student in the Department of Biostatistics at Brown University, where I am fortunate to be advised by Professor Larry Han. I completed my Master’s degree at New York University (NYU) and my Bachelor’s degree at the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) in Shenzhen, China.

My research interest lies in developing statistical tools to improve decision-making in public health, with a focus on conformal prediction, doubly robust estimation, and fairness-aware algorithms. Before coming to Brown, I served as a research assistant at the Department of Health Sciences, Northeastern University, the NYU Causal Inference Lab, and the NYU Motor Speech Lab, where I gained experience in developing novel causal inference tools, designing randomized controlled trials, and learning causal effects. In my free time, I enjoy playing tennis, board games, and mahjong (麻将), and getting back to nature :)
