Songting Li


Welcome to My Homepage


I am a Professor in the Institute of Natural Sciences and the School of Mathematical Sciences at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, where I co-direct the lab of computational neuroscience with Prof. Douglas Zhou.

I received my B.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Mathematics from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2010 and 2014 respectively, and my M.S. degree in Industrial Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2015. Before joining Shanghai Jiao Tong University, I worked as a Postdoc in the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences at New York University from 2015 to 2018. Here is my CV.
