					<p>Hello! I'm Mingyang Deng, a second-year PhD student at MIT, where I'm fortunate to be advised by
						Prof. <a href="https://people.csail.mit.edu/kaiming/">Kaiming He</a>. My research focuses on
						machine
						learning.
					</p>
					<p>I earned my undergraduate degree from MIT, double majoring in Mathematics
						and Computer Science. During my studies, I had the invaluable opportunity to collaborate with
						Prof. <a href="https://people.csail.mit.edu/tommi/">Tommi Jaakkola</a>. Additionally, I had the privilege of
						exploring fine-grained complexity under the guidance of Prof. <a
							href="https://people.csail.mit.edu/virgi/">Virginia Vassilevska Williams</a> and delving
						into combinatorics with Prof. <a href="https://yufeizhao.com/">Yufei Zhao</a>.</p>

					<p>Prior to my PhD, I gained valuable industry experience through internships at Google DeepMind, Meta (FAIR),
						Citadel Securities, and Pika.</p>


					<p> You can contact me at dengm at mit dot edu and
						view my resume <a href="resume.pdf">here</a>.
