Conference Organizing

I am organizing two minisymposia on generative modeling, optimal transport, imaging science, and scientific computing at SIAM IS26 and SIAM MDS26 (Salt Lake City, Nov 16–20, 2026). If you are attending, please join us:

• SIAM IS26 · MS30 — Generative Models, Transport, and Inverse Problems in Imaging Science (Salt Lake City, Tue Nov 17, 2026)
  Speakers: Xiaoqun Zhang (Shanghai Jiao Tong University); Jiachen Liu & Thomas Strohmer (UC Davis); Paul Hand (Northeastern University); Bao Wang (University of Utah).
• SIAM MDS26 · MS204 — Generative Models for Scientific Computing and Inverse Problems (Salt Lake City, Fri Nov 20, 2026)
  Speakers: Cristina Garcia Cardona (Los Alamos National Laboratory); Jingwei Hu (University of Washington); Yiming Ying (University of Sydney); Qiang Ye (University of Kentucky).

Recent Experience

• Visiting Graduate Researcher, UCLA (Mar 2025 – June 2025)
  Initiating a pipeline for 3D RNA/DNA folding from secondary structure using flow-matching models, supervised by Andrea Bertozzi.
• Research Intern, Los Alamos National Lab (May – Aug 2024)
  Developed a sparse, rigid, and hyperparameter-free graph representation for molecular structures, supervised by Qi Tang.
