Alberto Caron

Research Associate

The Alan Turing Institute

Short Bio

I am a Research Associate in Statistics & Machine Learning at The Alan Turing Institute. Previously, I was a PhD student at the Department of Statistical Science, University College London, under the supervision of Prof. Ioanna Manolopoulou and Prof. Gianluca Baio. Before that, I graduated with a Master of Science in Statistics & Econometrics from Bocconi University.

My research very generally revolves around Causality and Bayesian/Probabilistic Machine Learning, and how these can be used for decision making.

Previous to, but also during, my PhD, I have worked on a number of external applied research/consultancy projects on environmental and energy policy evaluation. Particularly, I have served as a researcher/consultant for the World Bank Group and for the UK governmental Department of Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy.

I have been serving as a Teaching Assistant for the following modules at UCL:

STAT0001: Economics
STAT0006: Linear Models
STAT0007: Stochastic Processes
