My Next Chapter- CMU Master’s in Machine Science2025-06-11T20:00:00+00:002025-06-11T20:00:00+00:00https://joseph.liu.us/blog/2025/CMU-MSMLI’m excited to share that I’ll be starting a new chapter this fall as a Master in Machine Science student at Carnegie Mellon University.

I will be conducting research with Yueqi Song under the advisement of Professor Graham Neubig. I’m particularly looking forward to contributing to their work and delving deeper into the world of machine learning and natural language processing.

This is a fantastic opportunity, and I can’t wait to see what I’ll learn and accomplish. More updates to come!

]]>Astrophysical Journal published our paper2024-10-17T20:00:00+00:002024-10-17T20:00:00+00:00https://joseph.liu.us/blog/2024/APJ-M31We are pleased to announce our paper “Variable Stars in M31 Stellar Clusters from the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury” has been published by the American Astronomical Society on October 17, 2024.

I am delighted to share a milestone in my research journey. A project I joined in June 2020, during my junior year of high school, has culminated in a publication in a premier astrophysical journal. This four-year journey has taught me firsthand that meaningful research requires persistence and patience. I am deeply grateful to my mentors, Dr. Monika D. Soraisam and Prof. Puragra Guhathakurta, for their invaluable guidance and support throughout this journey.

]]>Next Stop: USC! (And Why I Chose It)2022-07-07T03:00:00+00:002022-07-07T03:00:00+00:00https://joseph.liu.us/blog/2022/USCI’ve decided to continue my college studies at USC. After considering my options between University of Michigan, UC San Diego, and National University of Singapore, I chose USC primarily for its favorable professor-to-student ratio. This was a key factor in my decision since I’m keen to get involved in research. With just over two years until grad school application deadlines, I’m planning to join a lab soon and begin building my research experience. Looking forward to making the most of this opportunity.
