Huy Tuan Pham is currently a Clay Research Fellow at Stanford University. He received his Ph.D. from Stanford University in 2023, where he was advised by Jacob Fox. Before that, he obtained an MASt in Mathematics at the University of Cambridge in 2019 and a BS in Mathematics and MS in Statistics at Stanford University in 2018.

Huy’s main research interest is in probabilistic and extremal combinatorics, and related applications in probability theory, additive combinatorics and number theory, and theoretical computer science. His recent works focus on the study of thresholds in random discrete systems and connections to suprema of stochastic processes. Other themes of his recent works include applications of the regularity method in the study of thresholds and large deviations in random graphs, and the use of probabilistic ideas to resolve long-standing conjectures of Erdős in additive number theory.

He is a recipient of the 2024 Dénes König Prize and the ICBS Frontiers of Science Award in Mathematics.

Minh-Quan Vo is an incoming Ph.D. student at the Department of Mathematics at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). Before that, he received his B.S. in Mathematics (with Honors) from the VNUHCM - University of Science. His research interests include Probabilistic Combinatorics, Discrete Geometry, and Graph Theory.
