[Twitter]; [Google Scholar]; [GitHub]; [Curriculum Vitae];My long-term research goal is to develop a principled science for analyzing and reprogramming large language models (LLMs) to fundamentally bridge their gaps across domains and scientific disciplines. I believe that there exist hidden laws governing the internal mechanisms of LLMs, pointing toward a systematic framework for understanding and steering these seemingly black-box systems. Such a framework would help overcome their fundamental flaws and enable scientific discoveries beyond human capability.
I am on the academic job market for Fall 2026. If you are interested in my research and would like to discuss potential faculty positions, please feel free to reach out to me via email at chihan3 [at] illinois [dot] edu.
