Hyewon Kang

PhD Student

Hello, I’m Hyewon Kang, a PhD student at the COMBINE Lab. My research explores how human generalization arises from neural circuits connecting the dorsal visual stream and the hippocampal formation—a pathway I believe plays a key role in our ability to generalize across diverse experiences. I investigate this hypothesis by developing AI models ranging from graph convolutional networks to generative models and transformers, and I hope to collaborate with anyone interested in bridging neuroscience and artificial intelligence.

Fun Fact: I have an unusually flat back of my head, so I can sleep perfectly on my back; I love watching horror movies with friends but rarely feel fear—I'm always waiting for the truly terrifying one; Before pursuing my academic journey, I worked in the tech industry within the sales and marketing departments at SAP Korea and Oracle Korea.

Location. IBS Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research, N Center, Sungkyunkwan University, Seobu-ro 2066, Jangan-gu, 16419, Suwon, South Korea
