Boyang Li is a Ph.D. student in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at UCSD. Prior to joining UCSD, Boyang received a B.Sc. in Mathematics and Physics (double major) from William & Mary in May 2022.

Boyang is interested in developing control methodologies that possess both mathematical formality and versatility in application to various robotics systems, drawing ideas from optimization theory, dynamical systems, and machine learning. His current research focuses on bridging Control Barrier Functions and Hamilton-Jacobi Reachability analysis.

In his leisure time, Boyang enjoys playing soccer, video games (League of Legends, War Thunder), and reading books.
