About me
Hello! I'm Duy-Tung Pham (/zwi-tuŋ fam/). In Vietnamese, my name is written as Phạm Duy Tùng. You can call me Duy-Tung, or simply Tung.
I am an incoming PhD student at Northeastern University, advised by Prof. Huy Nguyen. Before that, I was an AI Research Resident at FPT Software AI Center, where I had the great opportunity to work under the guidance of Prof. Thieu Vo and Prof. Tan Minh Nguyen.
I completed my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science through the Talented (Honors) Program at the School of Information and Communication Technology (SoICT), Hanoi University of Science and Technology (HUST). During my undergraduate studies, I was also a research student at the Data Science Laboratory, where I was mentored by Dr. Linh Ngo Van and Prof. Khoat Than.
