I'm on the academic job market! I design and analyze probabilistic machine-learning methods---motivated by real-world scientific constraints, and developed in collaboration with scientists in biology, chemistry, and physics. A few highlights of my research areas are:

I am pleased to share our new NeurIPS paper for online Bayesian inference for neural networks. Instead of focusing on updating the parameter posterior, we work with the predictive posterior (which makes much more sense for non-identifiable models, and gives us more algorithmic freedom for developing faster methods).
Our paper “Martingale Posterior Neural Networks for Fast Sequential Decision Making” has been accepted at #neurips2025! Joint work with @l_sbetancourt, @AlvaroCartea and @sirbayes Blog: grdm.io/posts/bnn-without-ba… Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2506.11898 Code: github.com/gerdm/martingale-…

There’s been lots of interest in gradient flows, but I’ve been a bit sceptical as I wasn’t clear on the advantages. This paper shows that MMD gradient flows can integrate a large class of functions exactly without needing to converge to a global minimum: stationarity is enough!

New paper on Stationary MMD points 📣 arxiv.org/pdf/2505.20754 1️⃣ Samples generated by MMD flow exhibit 'super-convergence' 2️⃣ A discrete-time finite-particle convergence result for MMD flow Joint work with Toni Karvonen, Heishiro Kanagawa, @fx_briol, Chris J. Oates

📢 Post-Bayesian online seminar series coming!📢 To stay posted, sign up at tinyurl.com/postBayes We'll discuss cutting-edge methods for posteriors that no longer rely on Bayes Theorem. (e.g., PAC-Bayes, generalised Bayes, Martingale posteriors, ...) Pls circulate widely!

If you thought that (1) the ‘cold posterior effect’ is unique to Bayesian deep learning or (2) the temperature in cold posteriors / power posteriors can be tuned to significantly improve the predictive capabilities of a (regular) model, think again. arxiv.org/abs/2408.08806
