Lorenzo Rimella

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Dipartimento di Scienze economico-sociali e matematico-statistiche (ESOMAS) of the Università degli Studi di Torino (UNITO) also affiliated at Collegio Carlo working with Dr. Giovanni Rebaudo on state-space models theory and applications.

Before that I was senior research associate at Lancaster University collaborating with Prof. Paul Fearnhead and Prof. Chris Jewell, and supported by Bayes4Health (EPSRC grant EP/R018561/1) and the DRUM project.
