I am a Florence Nightingale Bicentenary Fellow at the Department of Statistics, University of Oxford.
I work in probability theory, with a focus on the intersection between stochastic analysis, mathematical biology and partial differential equations (PDEs). Much of my research during my PhD so far has involved studying interacting particle systems arising from population genetics models, as well as analysing the behaviour of their scaling limits, and the biological meaning of this behaviour.
Before coming to Oxford, I completed my PhD at the University of Bath, supervised by Sarah Penington and Marcel Ortgiese. I was a member of the SAMBa CDT and the Prob-L@B research group.
Interests:
Interacting particle systems and their scaling limits
Population genetics
Mathematical biology
Partial differential equations (PDEs)
