Shahzar

I am a PhD student in Tamara Broderick’s group at the MIT Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems. Previously, I received my master’s in statistics from UC Berkeley in May 2024 and my bachelors’ in mathematics, computer science, and statistics from UC Berkeley in December 2021.

During my master’s at Berkeley, I had the pleasure and privilege of working with Ryan Giordano in the Berkeley Department of Statistics, Benjamin Nachman at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and Nathan Lo at Stanford Medicine. Before that, I also had the opportunity to work with PhD students Jake Soloff and Runjing Liu in the Berkeley Department of Statistics during my undergraduate.

I am broadly interested in Bayesian inference, robust statistics, and trustworthy data science.
