-Yuchen is a post-doctoral researcher in mathematics at the [KTH RMSMA group](https://www.math.kth.se/RMSMA/).
-Before KTH he did a PhD at the [MASDOC program at Warwick](https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/masdoc), and spent two years in a postdoc position at [CMSA at Harvard](http://cmsa.fas.harvard.edu).
+In my past life I was a mathematician. I did a PhD at the [MASDOC program at Warwick](https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/masdoc), and spent two years in a postdoc position at [CMSA at Harvard](http://cmsa.fas.harvard.edu) and another one and a half years at the [KTH RMSMA group](https://www.math.kth.se/RMSMA/). These days I am a software engineer and steadily forgetting mathematics, not cool and a problem I am trying to fix.
-He is interested in machine learning, with a preference to its theoretical (which really translates to mathematical because he views statistics and theoretical computer science as subsets of mathematics) aspects.
+I believe anyone can be an academic, seeking truth and sharing their findings with the public.
-As an academic his job is to seek truth and share his findings with the public.
+I am interested in the idea of free software, and have been attempting to apply it to knowledge and research. For example I shared my research in Robinson-Schensted algorithms as a [wiki](https://toywiki.xyz).
-He is also interested in the idea of open research and open sourced his research in Robinson-Schensted algorithms as a [wiki](https://toywiki.xyz).
