I’m a first-year PhD student at Helmholtz Munich, Munich Center for Machine Learning (MCML), and LMU Munich.

My research focuses on clinically grounded data synthesis and foundation models, with expertise in medical imaging, deep learning, and multimodal representation learning. I am interested in developing robust, reliable, and interpretable medical AI systems for safe deployment in real-world clinical workflows.

I received my M.S. in Artificial Intelligence Applications from Korea University under the supervision of Prof. Jaewoo Kang and my B.S. in Biological Sciences and Data Science (Self-Designed Transdisciplinary Studies) from Sungkyunkwan University. I have also worked as a research intern at Lunit with Dr. Taesoo Kim and at the Health System Data Science Lab of Seoul National University under the supervision of Prof. Sang Min Park.

I love all kinds of movies and fictions, including indie films and science fiction. The quote I cherish most is:

"The only thing I do know… is that we have to be kind, especially when we don't know what's going on."
