About Me

Hi! I'm Benjamin Yan (颜斌), a coterminal student at Stanford University, where I study Mathematics (BS), Computer Science (BS, MS), and Creative Writing (Minor).

At Stanford University, I teach CS 106S (Coding for Social Good), work as a SUMO Tutor for the Math Department (MATH 18-21,51), and am involved with CS + Social Good, Math Organization, Stanford SciOly, and Golden Gate SciOly. During the winter term of 2024, I was in the United Kingdom as a visiting student at the University of Oxford, Brasenose College, completing an intensive tutorial in English short stories and contemporary poetry.

I've also been involved with ML research in Prof. Jure Leskovec's Stanford Network Analysis Project (SNAP) Group, Prof. Andrew Ng's Stanford ML Group, and Prof. Pranav Rajpurkar's Lab at Harvard Medical School—with a first-author paper publication at EMNLP, one of the preeminent conferences in natural language processing (NLP) research. My research broadly spans AI for social good, large language models (LLMs) in radiology healthcare, and graph neural networks on global supply chains.
