Michał Przykucki

PhD (Cambridge), MASt, MSc

Research Fellow in Random Discrete Structures, member of the Combinatorics, Probability and Algorithms group at the School of Mathematics of the University of Birmingham.

Research interests: Extremal and probabilistic combinatorics, Percolation, Probability, Graph Theory.

I received my Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge in 2013, where I worked under the supervision of Prof. Béla Bollobás. And here is my CV.

I am an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
