I am a Hermann-Weyl instructor at ETH Zurich. Before that I was a member at the Institute for Advanced Study. I graduated from the University of Cambridge in 2022 where I did a PhD under the supervision of Emmanuel Breuillard.

You can contact me at the following address: smachado [at] ethz.ch.

I am broadly interested in group theory, additive combinatorics, discrete subgroups of Lie groups, ergodic theory, geometry and their interactions. During my PhD I studied a generalisation of discrete subgroups of Lie groups called approximate lattices. Recently, I have also been interested in product growth in (compact) Lie groups and spectral problems on surfaces inspired by combinatorics. You can find my CV here, a list of my publications here and recordings of some of my talks here.
