I am a fourth year PhD student at DPMMS and Trinity College at the University of Cambridge. My advisor is Prof Richard Nickl. In 2021 I will join IDSS at MIT as a postdoc, where my mentor will be Youssef Marzouk.
My current research focuses around the mathematical theory for (non-linear) statistical inverse problems arising in the context of partial differential equations.
