Research

Last updated: March 10, 2023

My research focuses on emerging regulatory principles, standards, and technical norms in the area of AI safety and security. I am interested in providing a deeper understanding about the current and future role of human factors in the increasingly algorithmic decision making across various sectors. Specifically, I focus on the operationalisation of the emerging legal principle of meaningful human control over the use of autonomous systems, typology of standards applicable to AI systems, and legal issues of privacy-preserving technologies such as confidential computing. I am also involved in the research regarding innovation adoption in the defense and intelligence sectors.

My current intellectual home is the Surrey Institute for People-Centred AI and School of Law. I also remain affiliated with my alma mater, the Faculty of Law, University of Oxford.
