Lily Hu is a PhD candidate in Applied Mathematics and Philosophy at Harvard University. She works on topics in machine learning theory, algorithmic fairness, and philosophy of (social) science, and political philosophy.
Her current work focuses on causal inference methodology in the social sciences and is especially interested in how various statistical frameworks treat and measure the "causal effect" of social categories such as race, and ultimately, how such methods are seen to back normative claims about racial discrimination and inequalities broadly.
