PhD positions

Imperial PhD scholarships

In September 2025 I will advertise multiple projects for PhD scholarships starting in September 2026. See here for more details on Imperial PhD scholarships.

Other PhD funding sources

In general, I am open to supervising PhD projects on scientific machine learning topics if an appropriate funding source can be found, for example through industry funding. If you’re interested in this route, please send me a research proposal outlining your proposed PhD topic (see apply instructions below).

Apply

To apply, please start by emailing me, attaching the following:

  • CV (including education, and any research experience).
  • Brief motivation letter (200 – 400 words) where you should highlight how your experience enables you to pursue the project (can be in the email body).
  • Research proposal (only if you are not applying for a pre-defined project – 1 page). Effective research proposals are focused and concise; they should demonstrate a solid understanding of a (SciML) field, identify a specific, impactful problem or research question, and outline a feasible methodology. I encourage you to review our lab’s research to understand how your work might align with our focus. See here for more tips.
  • Any additional materials that support your application (optional).

I reserve the right to disregard applications that do not adhere to these instructions, or appear overly generic. Please note it may take me up to 2 weeks to review your application.

After you apply

Applications that pass an initial screening will be followed by a 1:1 interview, where we will discuss your research interests and background. I will also ask you to complete a SciML-related coding task (which does not need preparation beforehand), as well as a short 10 min research talk.

Should there be mutual interest following the initial interview, you will be encouraged to formally apply. At this stage, you will need to provide a research proposal and two academic referees. Shortlisted applicants will be invited to a departmental/scholarship interview, which will include at least one additional faculty member. For more details on the formal PhD application process at Imperial see here.

Master’s Projects

I am open to supervising both home and visiting Master’s students provided our interests align. Please start by sending me your CV along with a short description of your relevant experience and research interests.
