Welcome!
My name is Laura Lyman, and I am an applied mathematician and statistician! In Fall 2024, I joined the Mathematics and Statistics Department at Mount Holyoke College as a Clare Booth Luce Assistant Professor of Statistics. From 2022 - 2024, I was a Visiting Assistant Professor of Statistics at Macalester College. Prior to this role, I earned my Ph.D. at Stanford University.
I research how uncertainty propagates through models in science and engineering. In other words, I study how imperfect knowledge of a model input affects what that model returns, and I rigorously quantify which model outputs are possible or more likely to occur. I am fascinated by this work, and it uses a variety of tools from statistics, probability, linear algebra, and scientific computing.
If you have any questions, the best way to contact me is through email (lalyman AT mtholyoke DOT edu). I look forward to hearing from you!
