Biography
Jongho Park is a Research Scientist in the Applied Mathematics and Computational Sciences (AMCS) Program within the Computer, Electrical and Mathematical Sciences and Engineering (CEMSE) Division at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), Saudi Arabia, where he works under the mentorship of Prof. Jinchao Xu. He received his B.S. degree in Mathematical Sciences and Computer Science in 2013, and his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Mathematical Sciences in 2015 and 2019, respectively, all from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), under the supervision of Prof. Chang-Ock Lee. From 2019 to 2020, he was a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at KAIST, mentored by Prof. Chang-Ock Lee. He then served as a Research Assistant Professor at the Natural Science Research Institute at KAIST from 2020 to 2023.
He has published more than 30 research articles, including papers in leading journals in computational mathematics. In 2024, he was a plenary speaker at the 28th International Conference on Domain Decomposition Methods, one of the premier international forums in the field. He was also a recipient of the 2020 S-Oil Award of Excellence for Doctoral Dissertation, which recognizes outstanding doctoral dissertations in the natural sciences in Korea.
