Portrait of Bei Zhou

Bei Zhou

Postdoctoral researcher · Imperial College London

Dr Bei Zhou received his Master’s degree in Computer Science from the University of Sydney, Australia, and subsequently completed his PhD in Machine Learning and Discrete Mathematics at Queen Mary University of London, where his work contributed to breaking several longstanding world records on a complex combinatorial optimisation problem that had remained open for more than 25 years.

He joined Imperial College London as a Research Associate in 2024. His current research focuses on computational modelling and neural operators for simulations in cardiac digital twins. He is also a senior software developer and the creator of the Condorcet Domain Library (CDL) and TorchCor.
