Background
Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science and the Institute of AI at the University of Central Florida
Research focuses on Trustworthy AI and Computational Biology
Research interests include: Adaptability (few-shot learning, in-context learning, transfer learning), Robustness (model robustness under noisy data and distribution shifts), and Biomedical & Health Informatics (e.g., early heart failure detection from EHRs, explainable disease diagnosis with LLMs)
Actively recruiting motivated Ph.D. students interested in machine learning, trustworthy AI, and interdisciplinary applications in bioinformatics
Seeking collaborations on impactful research projects
