Hi! I'm a Ph.D. student at KAIST, advised by Prof. Sungsoo Ahn.
I'm broadly interested in applying machine learning to proteins and drug-like molecules to accelerate experimental workflows in the wet lab.
Previously, I developed an energy-based graph transformer for predicting ground-state molecular conformations, and later built a masked diffusion model for molecular generation with element-wise diffusion trajectories.
I also participated in a project leveraging representations from protein co-folding models for standalone small-molecule tasks, proposing a new perspective on what makes effective representations in drug discovery.
Currently, I'm working on building agentic LLM systems for optimizing end-to-end protein design workflows.
