I am a first year DPhil student working under the supervision of Prof. Ian Horrocks and Prof. Bernardo Cuenca Grau. Before joining the KRR group in October 2016, I was working as a research assistant in BIOTEC TU Dresden, specializing in biomedical text mining. I have a bachelor degree in Computational Linguistics from St. Petersburg State University, and I received my European Masters in Computational Logic from TU Dresden and Free University of Bozen-Bolzano. I have interned as a junior researcher in Fondazione Bruno Kessler, Trento, Italy and NICTA , Canberra, Australia.
