Tamara Broderick

Tamara Broderick is an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at MIT, specializing in machine learning and statistics. Her research focuses on developing methods for uncertainty quantification in data analysis, Bayesian nonparametrics, and scalable inference algorithms. She leads a research group advising PhD students and postdocs in statistical machine learning.

Her work spans Bayesian modeling, variational inference, spatial statistics, and applications in epidemiology and environmental science. Recent projects involve uncertainty-aware forecasting, robustness analysis of statistical methods, and efficient algorithms for high-dimensional inference. Broderick teaches Bayesian Modeling and Inference and contributes to MIT's statistics and data science initiatives.
