My general research interest lies in the intersection of Information Retrieval (IR) and Natural Language Processing (NLP). I develop theoretical groundings and methods for AI-based information access systems, where users requests are answered with direct reliable responses. My research received Best Paper Honorable Mention awards at ICTIR 2016 and SIGIR 2017. In 2024, I received the ACM SIGIR Early Career Researcher Award for outstanding contributions and leadership within seven years of completing my PhD.
I have served the research community in roles ranging from senior program committee member to General Chair of ACM ICTIR 2021, and chairing the ICTIR steering committee. I have served as a Program Chair of multiple core IR conferences, such as SIGIR-AP, SIGIR, WSDM.
Current research focus: Deep research agents, Uncertainty qualification, LLMs, Conversational AI, Low-resource AI systems
