Short Bio: My name is PháșĄm Nháș­t Trường - Vietnamese. I am currently a first/second-year Ph.D. student/candidate at the Department of Integrative Biotechnology, College of Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU), Republic of Korea. I am working under the guidance of Professor Balachandran Manavalan in the Computational Biology and Bioinformatics Laboratory. Prior to joining SKKU, I have worked as an Assistant Researcher at Ton Duc Thang University (TDTU), Vietnam. I completed my M.E. degree in Automation and Control at TDTU, where I was supervised by Dr. Sy Dzung Nguyen and co-supervised by Dr. Duc Ngoc Minh Dang. I also hold a B.E. degree in Electronics and Telecommunication from TDTU, which I obtained in 2019 under the supervision of Dr. Duc Ngoc Minh Dang.

Research Interests: Artificial Intelligence, Computational Intelligence, Deep Learning, Machine Learning, Signal Processing, XAI & Optimization, and their applications in the fields of Affective Computing, Antibody Therapeutics, Antibody Functional & Structural Prediction, Audio & Speech Processing, Bioinformatics, Biological Image Analysis, Computational Biology & Medicine, Computer-Aided Drug Design, Medical Image Analysis, Metagenomics Analysis, Multi-Omics Analysis, NeuroAI, Neurodegenerative Diseases, Peptide Therapeutics, Protein Design, Protein Functional & Structural Prediction, and Water Quality.

Inspirational Quotes:

Your origin does not determine what kind of person you are. Only you can decide who you become. - Meng Chih Chiang

Life can be heavy, especially if you try to carry it all at once. - Taylor Swift

Life can be seen as a balance between positive and negative aspects throughout its entirety. Therefore, it's essential to cherish every moment and embrace life fully. - Nhat Truong Pham

$$ \begin{align*} \text{Life} &= \int_{\text{birth}}^{\infty} \left(\frac{\text{Happiness} \times \text{Love} \times \text{Peace}}{\text{time}} - \frac{\text{Sadness} \times \text{Revenge} \times \text{Discord}}{\text{time}}\right) \, \text{dtime} \\ &= \int_{\text{birth}}^{\rm{t_{2024}}} \left(\frac{\text{Happiness} \times \text{Love} \times \text{Peace}}{\text{time}} - \frac{\text{Sadness} \times \text{Revenge} \times \text{Discord}}{\text{time}}\right) \, \text{dtime} \\ &\quad + \int_{\rm{t_{2024}}}^{\infty} \left(\frac{\text{Happiness}' \times \text{Love}' \times \text{Peace}'}{\text{time}} - \frac{\text{Sadness}' \times \text{Revenge}' \times \text{Discord}'}{\text{time}}\right) \, \text{dtime} \end{align*} $$
