Wern Juin Gabriel Ong

Master’s Student · University of Bonn

I’m a Master’s student at the University of Bonn and a 2024 graduate of Bowdoin College. I study derived and higher arithmetic-algebraic geometry, their interactions with stable and motivic homotopy theory, and related structural questions in higher algebra. I also think about effective machine computation of the structures that arise in these areas.

I completed my Master’s thesis at the University of Bonn under the direction of Dr. Lucas Mann and Prof. Dr. Peter Scholze, extending the Clausen–Scholze six-functor formalism for solid quasicoherent sheaves to spectral algebraic stacks.

In a previous life, I worked on problems in computational drug discovery.
