Dr. Yuexu Jiang, PhD

​

I am an Associate Research Engineer at the University of Kentucky, with a research focus on machine learning and computational biology. I am deeply fascinated by the complexities of biology, the elegance of algorithmic design, and the rapid advancements in artificial intelligence that are reshaping the field. Beyond my professional interests, I enjoy Chinese cuisine, soccer, suspense movies, and video games. I thrive in environments that encourage idea exchange and collaborative discussions, believing that innovation often stems from brilliant concepts rather than sheer workload.
