Anna joined the SDSC as a Senior Data Scientist in 2020. She is a statistician by training with a Master’s degree with Honors in Mathematical Statistics from Lomonosov Moscow State University. Anna has graduated with a PhD from ETH Zurich in 2018, where she worked on causal structure learning for protein signaling pathways. During her studies she did an internship at Facebook AI Research in New York working on discovery of hierarchies from data using hyperbolic geometry. Later she joined Facebook AI Research in Paris as a postdoctoral researcher, where she worked on a problem of out-of-distribution prediction of unseen drug combinations. Broadly her research interests are in unsupervised and self-supervised learning, domain adaptation and generalisation.
