Paul Fearnhead
Paul Fearnhead is Professor of Statistics at Lancaster University. He is a researcher in computational statistics, in particular Sequential Monte Carlo methods. His interests include sampling theory and genetics – he has published several papers working on the epidemiology of campylobacter by looking at recombination events in a large sample of genomes. Since January 2018 he has been the editor of Biometrika.[1]

In 2007 he also won the Guy Medal in Bronze of the Royal Statistical Society.
gollark: This advanced Notcombinator™ allows... safe encapsulation of... something... or maybe not.
gollark: Well, technically a notcombinator.
gollark: ```haskells :: t1 -> (((t2 -> t2 -> t3 -> t4) -> t2 -> (t2 -> (t2 -> t2 -> t3 -> t4) -> t3) -> t4) -> t1 -> (IO a -> a) -> t5) -> t5s x k = k z x unsafePerformIO```Is this combinator Turing-complete?
gollark: Yes, like all of Rust.
gollark: Yes, probably.
