List of available projects
If you are an ETH student in CS, EE or Statistics (math can also be arranged) and interested in doing a project or thesis, please fill out this form and email both Fanny and the project advisor. There are more opportunities in the lab than the listed projects, if you are interested in the general direction of trustworthy ML or causal inference (both empirically and theoretically) with excellent mathematical or coding background, feel free to contact us.
