Jaehong Jeong
I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Department of Applied Statistics at Hanyang University in Seoul, South Korea.
Before coming back to Seoul, I was an Assistant Professor of Statistics in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Maine (UMaine) and a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Spatio-Temporal Statistics & Data Science group, led by Distinguished Prof. Marc G. Genton, at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST). I completed my Ph.D. in Statistics in the Department of Statistics at Texas A&M University (TAMU) under the guidance of Prof. Mikyoung Jun.
