Summary
Andrew Zammit Mangion is an Associate Professor of Mathematics and Statistics with 15 years of experience developing Bayesian models and scalable algorithms for spatial and spatio-temporal systems. With a PhD in Control and Systems Engineering and an engineering degree from Malta, he blends rigorous dynamic-systems theory with practical computational tools to tackle problems from neural coding to sea-level rise and atmospheric trace-gas inversion. His career spans research posts at Edinburgh, Bristol and Wollongong and now UNSW, and he brings a track record of interdisciplinary impact—evidenced by membership of the OCO Science Team and election to the International Statistical Institute. He is known for translating complex physical and observational models into efficient inference workflows for large-scale datasets, a skill rooted in early work on FPGA-accelerated simulation and control at Rolls-Royce and CERN. Colleagues value his ability to bridge theoretical statistics, geoscience applications and computational engineering to deliver reproducible, policy-relevant science.
