Chenhui Zhang

I am a Research Engineer at Google DeepMind, working on AI for Science.

I graduated from the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society (IDSS), where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Sherrie Wang. I was part of the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems and the Earth Intelligence Lab, where we try to democratize the access to geospatial machine learning and better understand our planet.

Prior to MIT, I obtained my B.S. degree in Computer Science at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, where I worked on various research problems in remote sensing, sustainable agriculture, and trustworthy machine learning.

My long-term research agenda aims to build accurate, efficient, and trustworthy machine learning systems for climate and geospatial science with a low barrier of entry. I hope the research products we build can address the pressing issues in sustainable agriculture, land management, and agroecosystem modeling, thereby contributing to our collective efforts to mitigate and adapt to climate change.
