Hi everyone! I'm Qingqing Chen, a Ph.D. Candidate under the supervision of Dr. Andrew Crooks in the Department of Geography at the University at Buffalo. My research focuses on critically understanding how cities function by leveraging (geo)computational techniques and data informatics. I am interested in Urban Data Science, Geocomputation, Multisensory Urban Experience, Spatial analysis & visualization and Social media & big data.

I received a M.Sc. in Physics from National University of Singapore and B.Sc. in Physics from Minjiang University. Prior to starting my Ph.D., I worked as a Research Associate at the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) and as a Research Engineer at the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology Centre (SMART).
