Background
  • Research interests lie within the fields of machine learning and biomedical informatics. Current research focuses on developing learning algorithms applicable to irregular structured data such as graphs and its applications in biomedicine. General interest in the design of useful inductive biases for representation learning goes beyond graph contexts.
Miscellany
  • Outside of working, enjoys motorcycling, camping, cooking, playing games, and reading basic maths.
