Research interests

I am a Professor in the Mathematical and Computational Finance and Data Science Groups. My main research interests are in the areas of stochastic analysis and mathematical finance. In particular, I am interested in problems associated with decision making in the presence of risk and uncertainty, combining probability, statistics, optimal control theory and mathematical modelling of economic and financial systems.
