Allan Zhou

I am a research engineer at Google DeepMind, where I work on AI and robotics.

I recently completed my PhD at Stanford, advised by Chelsea Finn. There, my research focused on geometric deep learning, nested optimization, and imitation & reinforcement learning.

I also did a few internships: working on learned optimizers at Google DeepMind and on reinforcement learning at FAIR. Previously, I was an AI resident at Google Brain. I obtained my BS at UC Berkeley, advised by Anca Dragan.
