Thomas Wei

I am currently pursuing a Masters of Science in Robotics at Carnegie Mellon University. I am a part of the Biorobotics Lab and advised by Professor Howie Choset.

I did my undergrad at the University of Texas at Austin where I worked with Professor Andrea Thomaz and Professor Milos Gligoric.
