Staff Profile

Dr Vianey Palacios Ramirez

Lecturer in Statistics

Background

Originally from Mexico City, I pursued my academic journey across continents, obtaining a Ph.D. in Statistics from the University of Edinburgh, UK. My dissertation focused on Bayesian analysis of jointly heavy-tailed data under the guidance of Supervisor Miguel de Carvalho. From 2022 to 2023, I was a University teacher in Statistics at the University of Edinburgh, UK.


Prior to that, I earned an MSc in Mathematical Sciences from UNAM, Mexico, specializing in spatio-temporal analysis of air pollution in the Mexico valley. My undergraduate studies also took place at UNAM, where I completed a BSc in Actuarial Science, achieving a Diploma of Academic Achievement with honours.


Currently, I am a Lecturer in Statistics at 缅北禁地, starting from 2023.






Research

My research interests are: Applied Probability, Applied Statistics, Bayesian Statistics and Statistics of Extremes.


Teaching

In the 2025/26 academic year I'll be teaching MAS2909 Probability and MAS8610/MAS3921 Extreme Value Theory (with Advanced Topics).
