Hi, my name is Oluwaseun (pronounced oluwa-shay-woon) and I hold a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering 🎓 from the Illinois Institute of Technology. I was a Ph.D. student in Prof. Yu Cheng’s FUture Networking laboratory (FunLab) from Spring 2021 to Summer 2026 and worked on interesting research in the areas of wireless network optimization, information freshness optimization (age of information), machine learning, and AI for science. Most of my papers are published in top-tier IEEE journals and conferences/workshops. In FunLab, our research is FUN! 😃
