Yanan Ma

Postdoctoral fellow

I completed my PhD at the University of Manchester under the supervision of Prof. Goran Nenadic. My research lies at the intersection of LLMs, NLP, and healthcare AI. I focus on understanding and improving the reliability of LLMs through alignment, safety evaluation, and benchmark development. My current work investigates reasoning capabilities, multimodal and temporal understanding, and post-training approaches for building trustworthy AI systems in healthcare and other safety-critical settings.
