Miscellaneous
- My maternal grandparents both also studied Mathematics at Beijing Normal University and were classmates there. My maternal grandfather 房兴业 (Fang Xingye) was then transferred to Peking University halfway through his studies.
- My grandfather was a Researcher (研究员, equivalent to academic rank of full professor) in the Aerospace Biomedical Engineering Research Center (航天医学工程研究所, now 中国航天员科研训练中心 Astronaut Center of China, ACC) founded by 钱学森 (Qian Xuesen). He dedicated his entire career towards China’s China Manned Space Program and led various designs. He currently rests at 八宝山革命公墓 (Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery) as a national hero.
