Hello, and welcome to my website. I am Yuanxi Fu, a doctoral student in Information Science at the School of Information Sciences, UIUC [school page]. I made a career transition from chemistry to information science in 2019. After successfully defending my dissertation proposal, I am now on my way to receive a second PhD, this time in information science, which I expect to complete in 2027. You can view my CV here.

My research focuses on information and data management for science. In the past, I have worked on evidence synthesis on controversial scientific topics. I am currently working on two main projects: my dissertation on unreliability propagation in science, and a project on AI-assisted conceptual modeling. In the near future, I hope to work on building data infrastructures to supply high-quality, sustainable data for training AI scientists.
