A passionate, impact-driven scientist in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, I am a Honorary Associate Professor at University College London, and an independent consultant, advising a variety of start-ups, NGOs, and institutions. I was Director of Research, Head of Element AI’s London Office, with a focus on AI for Good, for two years (2018-2019). I joined DeepMind Technologies Limited (later acquired by Google) in 2012 as an early employee. In my four years at DeepMind (2012-2016), I led some fundamental research directions used in early demos and fundraising, and helped to create and lead its Health Applied Research Team. Since leaving DeepMind in 2016 I have been working with Amnesty International. I also have several years of experience consulting for industry, and enjoy sharing the passion by teaching, ranging from undergraduate to professional continuing education. I hold an MSc in Computer Engineering, an MSc in Mathematical Statistics, a PhD in Mathematics, specialized in Computational Statistics, from University Paris VI Pierre and Marie Curie and Telecom ParisTech, for which I received the 2010 Savage Award from the International Society for Bayesian Analysis.
