About me:

  • I am a Chinese postgraduate researcher specializing in Paleolithic archaeology, with a strong familiarity with East Asian lithic materials.
  • My MA thesis focused on large stone tools (mainly dolomite and limestone) and involved use-wear analysis, experimental archaeology, and raw material sourcing.
  • I have fieldwork and lab experience, and I’ve published a peer-reviewed article as second author in a Chinese core archaeological journal.

Research interests:

  • I’m particularly interested in the intersection of anthropology and sociology, with an emphasis on philosophy of technology and Bruno Latour’s later works.
  • I welcome interdisciplinary supervision, including programs in archaeology, anthropology, STS, philosophy of technology, or history.

Application intent:

  • I am currently seeking fully funded PhD opportunities, ideally with tuition coverage and a stipend (via assistantship or fellowship).
  • I have previously applied to programs in Japan and the U.S., which helped clarify my direction, though I was not admitted.
  • I am now actively looking for supervisors who are recruiting, or for recommendations about potential advisors/projects in relevant fields.

Kind request:

  • If you know of any open PhD positions or supervisors accepting applications, I would be deeply grateful for any leads.
  • I'm also happy to receive general advice, referrals, or institutional guidance.
  • Please feel free to comment or message me directly—thank you very much for your time and help!
