Talks

I am lucky to have received invites to speak at several venues over the past few years. Below is a complete list of my invited talks to date.

Representative talk videos for my work on the following topics: (i) Spectrum-aware debiasing with applications to inference under structured dependencies, heavy-tailed covariates, (ii) New central limit theorems in high dimensions for two-stage estimators in causal inference, (iii) Min-norm interpolation and boosting, (iv) Modern maximum likelihood theory for high-dimensional logistic regression, (v) Overview talk for the National Academies’ Symposium on Mathematical Challenges for Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence.
