Profile
I am a Lecturer in Mathematical Data Science at the School of Mathematical Sciences, Queen Mary University of London. Prior to that (2017-2022), I was a research scientist at the Weierstrass Institute for Applied Analysis and Stochastics, in Berlin, Germany, working in the group Nonsmooth Variational Problems and Operator Equations. During the period September 2015-August 2017, I was an Alexander von Humboldt Postdoctoral Fellow, working initially at the Mathematical Institute of Humboldt University Berlin and later at the Weierstrass Institute. I completed my PhD in 2014 at the University of Cambridge, where I was also a member of the Cambridge Image Analysis group. I stayed in Cambridge six more months after my PhD, as an EPSRC Doctoral Prize fellow at the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics.
