Park Jun-Yong (朴俊勇)

I am a Lecturer and a member of the pure mathematics research group at the University of Sydney.
Previously, I was a research fellow at the University of Melbourne, MPIM Bonn and IBS-CGP Pohang.
I received my Ph.D. in 2018 from the University of Minnesota under the supervision of Craig Westerland.

I am interested in arithmetic geometry and Hodge theory, focusing on the geometry of families of varieties as rational points on moduli stacks over function fields and their study via Frobenius, motives, and periods.

"Families of Elliptic Curves over k(t), 𝔽_q(t), ℂ(t): Height Moduli, Exact Counts, Mordell-Weil Rank Jumps" at Melbourne 2026
