Hello! I’m Young-Han Son, a PhD candidate currently conducting research at the Department of Artificial Intelligence, Korea University, as part of the Molecular AI Team.
My research focuses on molecular optimization for drug discovery and semiconductor design, as well as optical physics, particularly spectrometry and computational lithography. I’m especially interested in optimization, reinforcement learning for language models, and I am strongly interested in physics-based modeling.
I’m also supervising various medical AI projects, including research on brain-computer interfaces (BCI) and radiology.
Outside of research, I’m a coffee lover ☕ — I enjoy AeroPress and hand-drip brewing, and love exploring a variety of coffee beans.
