Orlando Marigliano is a PhD student at MPI MiS. In April 2018 he joined the newly formed Algebraic Statistics group led by Christiane Görgen.

His dual Italian-German background comes from being born in Rome and having lived in Germany for quite a while. He completed his Master’s studies at the University of Bonn, with a thesis about Verlinde bundles in algebraic geometry, written under the supervision of Daniel Huybrechts.

Orlando is interested in the two-way connection between algebraic geometry and the fields of statistics, machine learning, and the natural sciences.

He is currently working on in the field of algebraic statistics, studying statistical models that can be viewed as geometric spaces and described by algebraic equations. On the applied side, he is employing these ideas to help study the causes of vulnerability of soil biodiversity.

In addition to doing mathematics, Orlando enjoys dancing and exploring the city.
