Mathematician | Entrepreneur | Author
I build better ways to make sense of a noisy, uncertain world.
My academic research uses data to tackle health threats – from large-scale studies of social behaviour and immunity to developing statistical methods and open-source software tools.
My writing has appeared in The Times, Observer, Financial Times, New Statesman and Wired, among others, and my books include The Rules of Contagion and Proof (FT, New Scientist and Waterstones Book of 2025).
I am also co-founder and CTO of WholeSum, a VC-backed startup developing statistically robust, auditable methods for interpreting large volumes of open-ended text.
