Doyeon Avery Kim
Graduate Student @ Columbia University
Previously, I received my BAs in astronomy and physics at UC Berkeley.
I am interested in understanding how the multi-phase, multi-scale gaseous medium interacts with each other and their role in the evolution of galaxies. My thesis research focuses on studying the gaseous medium, particularly neutral hydrogen (HI), within and around the Milky Way and the Local Group. I also work on applying advanced statistical methods and machine learning techniques to bridge the gap between observational data and theoretical models.
Some of my recent works include:
- Understanding Kinematics near the LMC with coherent velocity structures.
- Examine kinematic and chemical associations between the Magellanic Stream and nearby UV absorbers and HI emissions.
- Likelihood-free inference with DeepSets
- Analyzing causal relations amongst physical parameters and observables in a galaxy simulation (TNG & SAM).
- Understanding kinematic structures of magnetically aligned HI filaments.
- Developing the data driven diffuse foreground of the MW (eGSM)

Projects
I am passionate about bridging the realms of art and science. I have co-created and designed astronomy-inspired art projects to make scientific concepts more accessible, engaging, and enjoyable for diverse audiences.
