About me

I am a PhD student at ETH Zurich in the Statistical Machine Learning Group, supervised by Prof. Fanny Yang. I am currently active in the fields of statistical learning, causal inference, information theory, mathematical signal processing and inverse problems.

Research interests

  • Statistics of overparametrized learning systems
  • Mathematics of high-dimensional data
  • Robustness of data-driven algorithms
  • Mathematical signal processing
  • Machine learning for neuroscientific discovery
