Current Research
My research focuses on data analytics, optimization, and artificial intelligence. My mission is to utilize data to drive efficient decisions and tackle emerging social, environmental, and operational challenges. For example, I have worked on:
Developing robust AI methods for kidney exchange and organ allocation
Designing integrated learning and optimization frameworks for decision-making facing complex systems and environments
