Hello!
+I'm a posdoct at the Dipartimento di Scienze Economico-Sociali e Matematico-Statistiche (ESOMAS) + at the Università di Torino, working with Prof. Matteo + Ruggiero. I am also affiliated to the Collegio + Carlo Alberto + as part of the "de Castro" Statistics Initiative.
+My main research interests revolve around stochastic processes arising within the field of + mathematical population genetics, and how techniques from probability theory, statistical + computation and Bayesian analysis can be combined to provide powerful inferential methods to + answer pertinent questions within genetics.

About Me
+Previously, I was a Posdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Oxford working within Pier Francesco Palamara's group. Prior to that + I was a + Research Fellow at the University of Warwick, where I also completed my PhD in December 2021 + under the supervision of Paul Jenkins, Jere Koskela and Dario Spanò. I previously studied + at Cambridge (Part III) and the University of Malta (BSc). -

In the summer of 2022 I was one of the organisers of the Stochastic modelling in the + life sciences Junior Trimester Programme held at the Hausdorff Research Institute + for Mathematics (University of Bonn).
