Hi! I am Steven (Jin) Huang, a second-year year Ph.D. student at the University of Michigan in the Foreseer Group, advised by Prof. Qiaozhu Mei. My research interests include large language models (LLMs) for scientific discovery, data attribution, and graph machine learning.

Previously, I completed bachelor’s degree at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. I’ve also had the privilege of working with Prof. Jiaqi Ma and Prof. Danai Koutra. I interned at Microsoft Research in Redmond, DP Technology and Intel.
