about me:
about me:
Hi! I'm Siddhi (she/her). My name is pronounced a bit like "city". I am currently a UC President's Postdoctoral Fellow at UC Berkeley. My scientific sponsor is Ian Agol.
Here is my CV.
I'm interested in low dimensional and geometric topology. In particular, I study 3- and 4- dimensional manifolds by studying the geometric structures they admit, as well as the knots and surfaces they contain. You can read more about my research interests here.
You may know me from:
Columbia University, where I was an NSF Postdoctoral Fellow and a Ritt Assistant Professor. My scientific mentors were Mohammed Abouzaid and Francesco Lin.
Georgia Tech, where I was an RTG postdoc for the 2020/2021 academic year. My scientific mentor was Jen Hom.
Boston College, where I was a PhD student. My advisor was Josh Greene.
