About

I am a Ph.D. student at KAIST, advised by Prof. Jinwoo Shin. My research interests are centered on integrating large language models (LLMs) into a broad range of applications, leveraging their in-context learning and reasoning capabilities. My recent work specifically focuses on applying LLMs in tabular data analysis and molecular domains.
