Senior Computational Scientist
Prior to joining the RCAC Support team in 2021, Yang investigated the thermal and mechanical properties of low-dimensional materials with multi-scale theoretical approaches and machine learning methods during her doctoral research. Following her Ph.D., she studied physics and chemistry of perovskite systems and the development of novel machine learning methodologies for the dimensionality reduction of the electronic Hamiltonian as a Postdoc. Currently, she is responsible for facilitating the use of RCAC clusters and ACCESS Anvil cluster in research and working collaboratively with Purdue staff and national researchers.
