Associate Professor

Currently, I am an Associate Professor in the at the and of the . Before joining CUNY, I was a Courant Instructor at NYU Math Department. I obtained my bachelor's (B.Stat) and master's (M.Stat) degrees in Statistics from Indian Statistical Institute. I obtained my MS and Ph.D degrees in Operations Research & Information Engineering from Cornell University. I have received Division of Science Excellence in Faculty Research Award and "Salute to Scholars" recognition at CUNY. So far, my research has been supported by multiple grants, one grant, one - grant, and several internal grants.

My research is broadly categorized (with overlaps) into three Groups based on primary focus, aim, and approach.

Statistics and Data Science (Algorithms, Inference Method and Framework Development, Theoretical Analysis, Applications)

Theoretical and empirical analysis of statistical inference procedures, machine learning algorithms, and data science approaches to address inference questions involving complex data-types (including network data, high dimensional data, and complex time series data) and develop efficient inference procedures.

Applied and Theoretical Probability

Mathematical and probabilistic modeling of different biological, social, and physical phenomena and complex structures along with their theoretical analysis, stochastic spatial models, percolation and related models, random graph models, processes and dynamics on random graphs.

Interdisciplinary Research (in collaboration with a wide range of scientists and domain experts in various disciplines including social, bio, and physical sciences)

Developing relevant inference frameworks and methods to address inferential questions arising in various practical areas (including biosciences, social and behavioral sciences, computer science, and physical sciences).
