Summary
I joined the BSU as a Research Associate in October 2025. I am currently working on developing methods for Bayesian causal inference using time-series observational data with Pantelis Samartsidis. More broadly my research interests lie at the intersection of Bayesian modelling and computation, with applications primarily in the health and medical research.
Before joining the BSU, I was a PhD student at University College London where I was supervised by Samuel Livingstone and Gianluca Baio. My PhD research focused on the development of Bayesian survival models for use in Health Technology Assessment and the development and application of Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods based on Piecewise Deterministic Markov Processes.
