Me and Sete walking in Grenoble :)

Hi! I just finished my PhD at Inria Grenoble - Rhône-Alpes and Laboratoire d'Ecologie Alpine under the supervision of Julyan Arbel and Wilfried Thuiller. I was working on learning species associations from co-occurence data and theoretical properties of Bayesian nonparametric clustering. My research interests are Bayesian nonparametric clustering, causal discovery from observational and time series data, and gaussian graphical models. I am passionate aboute the medical and ecological data application.

I did my undergraduate studies at Grenoble Institute of Technology (ENSIMAG ) and prior to that at Saint Petersburg State University
