Research Experience
  • Currently an Assistant Research Professor and Leverhulme Research Fellow in the Machine Learning Group at the University of Cambridge, a College Research Associate at King's College Cambridge, and an Associate Fellow at the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence. Previously, a Research Fellow in Machine Learning at the University of Sussex, focusing on fairness, equality, and access.
Education
  • PhD in Analytical Science (Physics) from the University of Warwick; M.Sc. in Physics and dual B.Sc. in Physics and Biology from Tel Aviv University.
Background
  • Research interests: Responsible Machine Learning, with a focus on high-stakes decision making in areas such as criminal justice and social care. Specifically, where decisions can be life-changing, individuals cannot opt out, protective legislation (e.g., GDPR) does not apply, and wrong predictions can cause significant harm.
