Summer 2025 research recap: Zhihui Zou

Duke undergraduate student Zhihui Zou started the AsteXT research team in Summer 2025 with support from APSI via the Janet B. Chiang Grant and Matthew Hayes (Duke University Libraries). This team studies Asian American short stories published in serial literary journals between 1974 and 2024 using Digital Humanities methodologies. 

Inspired by the work by scholars such as Lauren Fonteyn and Richard So (Duke English), this project aims to integrate tools such as Natural Language Processing and database construction to approach Asian American literature from a scalar perspective.
