Vanessa Piccolo

Welcome! 

I am a postdoctoral researcher at EPFL in the group of Prof. Florent Krzakala. My work lies at the intersection of probability theory—especially random matrix theory—and the mathematical foundations of data science.

I completed my Ph.D. in mathematics at ENS Lyon, co-advised by Prof. Alice Guionnet (CNRS and ENS Lyon) and Prof. Gérard Ben Arous (Courant Institute, NYU). My thesis is available here. Before that, I studied mathematics at ETH Zurich and I wrote my Master's thesis under the supervision of Dr. Dominik Schröder. For more details, see my CV here.
