My name is Guancheng Wan (万冠呈), I’m a 4th-year undergraduate student at the School of Computer Science, Wuhan University, supervised by Mang Ye. I’m currently a research intern at Emory University, supervised by Wei Jin. I also worked with Nitesh V Chawla, B. Aditya Prakash, and Qiang Yang.
🌟 I’m actively applying for a Ph.D. position in 2025 Fall!
🔎 Research
“All things are interconnected, this is the essence of nature.”
I am enthusiastic about modeling the relationship of these connections, particularly focusing on geometric data. Currently, my research interests revolve around three primary areas:
a) AI for Science:
-
Bioinformatics (e.g., Genomics)
-
Public Health (e.g., Epidemiology)
-
Physics (e.g., Neural ODE, Dynamic System)
b) TrustWorthy Graph Learning
c) Self-supervised Graph Learning
