I am an MRC Postdoctoral Fellow working with Dr. Paul Kirk on the development and refinement of models that combine multiple omics datasets, with the aim of identifying patient subgroups and disease subtypes that are both reproducible and clinically actionable.
I hold a PhD in Statistics, and an MSc in Statistics and Operational Reseach from the University of Edinbrugh. My thesis work focused on asymptotic properties of a Bayesian semi-parametric non-regular model. More specifically, we studied the limiting posterior distribution of the end point of the support of a density that has a discontinuity located there. My research interests include Bayesian methods and Machine Learning techniques, especially for nonparametric and high-dimensional models.
