Hi, I’m Tim! I am a Chapman-Schmidt Fellow at Imperial College London and a DAAD AInet Fellow at the Technical University of Munich. I completed my PhD in Mathematics at Imperial College London in 2026 under the supervision of Professor Mauricio Barahona. Before that, I did an MRes in Biomedical Research and an MSci in Mathematics, also at Imperial.
My current research uses AI to uncover and make use of the structure and relations hidden in data, from the dependencies between mathematical results, to the topological and geometric representation of molecules, to the interactions between neurons in large language models.
