Christine's Headshot

Hi, I'm Christine Ye. I'm a current student at Stanford University, where I study Mathematics and Physics, dance with Cardinal Ballet Company, design for FashionX, and spent a quarter living in Berlin. I'm originally from just outside Seattle, Washington. I'm currently interested in: scalable oversight, automated science, the anthropology of progress, skiing, and house music; see my research and writing.

I'm currently part of the NLP Group at Stanford, working on building and understanding frontier evaluations. I also work in the Hoover Institution's History Lab. Previously I've worked on retrieval and interpretability with John Wu, supernova cosmology and optical/IR observations with David Jones at Gemini Hawaii. From 2020 to 2022 I studied astrophysics and cosmology with gravitational-wave populations with Maya Fishbach and LIGO, and was fortunate enough to be awarded the top prize in the Regeneron Science Talent Search.
