It is a great pleasure to announce that our colleague Courtney Paquette has been named a

Machine learning relies heavily on probabilistic optimization algorithms.

While machine learning papers are written at a staggering rate, there is much less foundational mathematical work that addresses the success of machine learning.

Since her PhD, Courtney has been at the forefront of this foundational work.

More recently, with her partner in crime Elliot Paquette, she has developed a pioneering program blending random matrices, high dimensional probability and optimization theory.

Please join me in congratulating Courtney on this huge, highly deserved honour.
