About

Liz

I am a first year PhD student at the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, University of Cambridge. I work in Machine Learning, primarily the intersection between Symbolic Regression and Deep Models. I am supervised by Dr. Miles Cranmer.

Previously, I did one year in Finance at JPMorgan, London. And did my undergraduate in Physics at Imperial College London.

I love reading, going to the gym, and walking. I am Singaporean.
