Top SchoolLawrence Murray is an independent researcher based in Bangkok with 13 years of experience applying probabilistic machine learning, Bayesian statistics, and Monte Carlo methods to real-world problems. He blends deep academic training (PhD in Informatics from the University of Edinburgh) with industry leadership, most recently as Senior Manager of Research Science at Uber and earlier roles at Oxford, Uppsala, and CSIRO. Skilled in C++ and high-performance computing, he focuses on scaling probabilistic inference and simulation for production-grade applications. Colleagues know him for turning theoretically rigorous methods into efficient implementations that run at scale, and for moving between research environments and product-driven teams with ease.
