Biography

I'm an applied mathematician with a BSc in Applied Mathematics and an MSc in Statistics and Operational Research. I completed my PhD focusing on Bayesian emulators for computer models and engineering computations. I've continued working with engineers in a postdoc academic position and joined University College London in 2019, transitioning to clinical research. My research interests lie in uncertainty quantification, particularly in calibrating computer models using Bayesian statistics and machine learning. I'm currently part of CHIMERA, which includes four national hubs for mathematics in medicine, and I'm working closely with both UCL Hospital and Great Ormond Street Hospital to develop methods and algorithms that enhance clinical decision-making.
