  I did my PhD in Edinburgh with Prof. Chris Williams, working on theoretical and practical aspects of nonparametric Gaussian process models. I moved on to the University of California at Berkeley for a postdoc in the group of Prof. Michael Jordan. I joined the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics in Summer 2005.

My interests are in Gaussian process and other nonparametric models, in variational inference for graphical models, and in large scale problems. I did some work in semi-supervised learning as well. Recently, I got interested in models for neuronal spike data, in gene regulatory network identification (systems biology), in natural image modelling, and in other applications of sparse Bayesian models. Very recently, I began working on undersampled MRI reconstruction and design of MRI sampling trajectories using Bayesian methods. I am also the chief (and only) developer of the LHOTSE toolbox for adaptive statistical models, which you may find useful in your next high-performance scientific C++ application.
