I am currently a Van Vleck Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. My postdoctoral mentor is Gheorghe Craciun, and I am also working with Hanbaek Lyu and Qin Li on data science. I received my Ph.D. from Department of Mathematical Sciences at KAIST, where I studied under the guidance of Jae Kyoung Kim.

My research focuses on mathematical biology. Among numerous interesting topics, my interests are chemical reaction network theory, stochastic model reduction method (especially quasi-steady-state approximation), Bayesian statistical analysis to infer mysterious Markovian/non-Markovian dynamics of biochemical reaction networks.

Beyond the mathematical topics, I am working on collaborative works to solve biological problems. One is developing non-invasive biomarker to diagnose congnitive impairment from wearable data.
