Wang, Andrew Jie Liang
Postdoctoral Research Fellow
Ph.D. (Melb), B.A. (Hons) (Melb)
My work sits at the intersection of psychology, cognitive science, and language. My research interests include how language is represented in the mind, how people use language to obtain information about the world, and how these issues relate to modern language models like LLMs.
