Woohyeok Choi
AI Researcher - Neural Engineering - Brain Decoding / AI in Epilepsy

About

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Artificial Intelligence at Korea University.

My research lies at the intersection of machine learning, neural engineering, and clinical neuroscience, with a particular focus on AI for epilepsy and brain decoding.

I develop machine-learning methods for biomedical signals with the goal of advancing neural engineering research and translating these approaches into practical clinical decision-support workflows.
I am always happy to connect with others who share similar research interests. Please feel free to reach out.
