- Education:
- PhD, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001
- Research Interests: Computational biology, mathematical statistics, machine learning, non-parametric Bayesian statistics
My research interests are in computational biology and machine learning. In both contexts I am interested in using geometry to improve statistical models for high-dimensional data.
