Hello, I am a M.S./Ph.D. integrated student in the Medical Information Processing (MIP) lab at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) under the supervision of Professor Won Hwa Kim.

My research interests include graph machine learning, medical imaging, and computer vision. Recently, I have been particularly interested in employing machine learning methods to diagnose and understand diseases.

Please find my Curriculum Vitae here.
