More about the event:
Curious what it means to be a Quantitative Researcher at PDT Partners? Join our moderated discussion with PDT researchers to learn about their journey to quantitative finance from academia. They will discuss their career path, the interesting work that challenges them and their decision to come to the quantitative finance industry. Learn how a team of scientists, mathematicians and engineers with PhDs in Physics, Computer Science, Statistics, Math, Economics and Electrical Engineering develop trading strategies using uniquely scientifically rigorous approaches in an open and collaborative culture.
We will discuss how PDT and quantitative research compares to other industries, our academic research culture and how researchers use the skills from their graduate program to tackle interesting and challenging problems. This will be an interactive discussion and you will hear directly from PDTers!
Here are the PDT researchers on our panel:
Ben
Ben completed his PhD in Applied Mathematics from UC Berkeley. Prior to joining the PDT research team, Ben worked with Professor James Sethian in the Mathematics Group at Lawrence Berkeley National. Ben received his Bachelors in Mathematics from Harvey Mudd.
Ksenia
Ksenia completed her PhD in Physics from Princeton and Institute for Advance Study. She received her Master’s and Bachelor’s in Physics from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. Ksenia joined our research community in 2019 and is in the middle of her rotation with our research teams.
We hope to see you there!
Best,
