Professor Ben Lambert

Associate Professor of Statistics

Biographical Sketch

I am a mathematician and a statistician with a strong interest in biological systems, and I develop computational methods that help to uncover biological and epidemiological knowledge.

I direct Oxford's Schmidt AI in Science programme  a postdoctoral Fellowship programme where Fellows apply methods from AI to advance scientific knowledge.

I am a passionate communicator of statistical ideas (for example, through my YouTube videos), and I develop open-source materials which allow other researchers to understand cutting-edge methods.
