About eCHT

Who we are


The eCHT research community relies on volunteers to organize and participate in research-oriented online activities. Many people have contributed leadership over the years, and even more have contributed as participants. Over the years, Bert Guillou, Dan Isaksen, Hana Jia Kong, Guchuan Li, and JD Quigley have been particularly engaged in organization. In addition to the more formally attached people mentioned below, graduate students Mattie Ji, Ang Li, and Jackson Morris deserve special thanks. Special thanks also to Jesse Keyes and Maxine Calle for their help building this website.

The current organizers are Guchuan Li (Peking University) and J.D. Quigley (University of Virginia). Please contact us at echtadmin [at] gmail [dot] com.

Funding


The eCHT research community was sponsored in 2022-2026 by a Research Training Grant (RTG) from the National Science Foundation (NSF).
