I am a Senior Research Fellow in the Department of Engineering at the University of Cambridge. I lead the Turing language team. I am interested in developing foundational methodologies for machine learning and intelligence, with a focus on Bayesian inference, decision making and Bayesian nonparametrics.
I completed my MSc with Chris Williams and PhD with Zoubin Ghahramani.
