I began my adventure with science in Poland where I received my Master's degree in Theoretical Physics from the Jagiellonian University in 2007. I obtained my PhD in Applied and Computational Mathematics from the California Institute of Technology in 2013 (under the supervision of Jerry Marsden and Mathieu Desbrun). After that, I worked at Imperial College London (2014-2017) and the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (2017-2023). I am also completing my Habilitation at the Technical University of Munich.
The main goal of my research program is to combine methods of three fields of computational mathematics, namely, geometric integration, stochastic integration, and machine learning, in order to construct new structure-preserving and data-driven numerical algorithms for both deterministic and stochastic dynamical systems. Such new methods are applicable to a wide range of problems in fields such as fluid dynamics, molecular dynamics, astrophysics, and plasma physics. In recent years I have been focusing on applications to numerical simulations of collisional Vlasov-Maxwell equations in plasma physics.
In my free time I enjoy hobbies such as photography, history, hiking, and ballroom dancing.
