Msc Statistics NCSU – Mech Interp for Biology!
Good day! I am interested in uncovering how language models represent biological sequences like DNA and proteins, and how we can leverage these representations for generation and uncertainty-quantified prediction. More broadly, I want to understand how LLMs develop and use generalized concepts, whether it be an “assistant axis”, “x greater than y” or “all sequences that correspond to a transcription factor”.
I’m doing my Masters with the Jungem Kim lab and the EnBiSys lab at NC State. In my free time, I really love gardening, botanizing, and rock climbing.
