My name is Kaiyang Wan, and I am a PhD student at INSAIT, where I am fortunate to be supervised by Dr. Yuxia Wang, an exceptionally supportive and empathetic mentor. She fosters a space that encourages curiosity and creativity, where guidance combines academic rigor with personal growth, a spirit of genuine exploration, and a deep love for science and research, just like my precious supervisor Dr. Xiuying Chen at MBZUAI.

I’m interested in understanding and improving LLMs and LLM-based agentic systems for NLP from first principles.
