Summary
Sach Mukherjee is an MRC Investigator (Programme Leader) in the Biomedical Machine Learning theme at the MRC Biostatistics Unit, and Principal Investigator and Head of Statistics and Machine Learning at the DZNE in Bonn, Germany.
He earned a DPhil in machine learning at Oxford, was a postdoctoral fellow in statistics at UC Berkeley and has previously held faculty positions in Warwick and Amsterdam. His research interests centre on high-dimensional statistics and machine learning for biomedicine, including in particular methods for high-dimensional and heterogeneous data and causality. He has been a Fulbright Fellow and a recipient of the Wolfson Research Merit Award of the Royal Society.
