Perhaps, the best way to understand my research style is to check my website and my most recent papers.
I usually spend at least 30 min per week in one-one-one meetings with my mentees. We can also discuss longer time slots if necessary. Besides these time slots, I try to be as responsive as possible over Slack (>2 comprehensive responses per day) and read relevant papers between weekly meetings.
I'm looking for the following skills:
No constraints here. I'm fine with both internal (i.e., within MATS) and external collaborators. I can also pair MATS scholars with PhD students in my group, if it's useful.
I would prefer to set the overall direction, but I will listen closely to scholars about their preferences within a broad direction. Converging on a particular topic is expected to be a collaborative process.
