Zhou, Ej

I am doing my second year of a PhD at the Language Technology Lab, University of Cambridge, advised by Prof. Anna Korhonen. I am working with the Qwen Multilingual team as a research intern at the moment.

I work on multilingual NLP: getting LLMs to work well, and fairly, across languages rather than only in English. My interests span interpretability, alignment, generalisation, bias and calibration.

Wu is my muttersprache but my education was in Mandarin. Apart from that I speak some French, Japanese, Russian, English and German to varying degrees. I am learning Polish and Portuguese this year. I am passionate about languages and it has always been a motivation for me to work on NLP.

Some other things: I am a cinema enthusiast and I was at the 76th–79th Festival de Cannes; I consider myself a Buddhist; I trained Guqin at the Xihu Qinshe and taught it at ZJU for a year.
