Hey, I'm Slava šŸ‘‹

I am currently working on SieveStack, a startup in computational drug discovery, which I founded with my dear friends Amber and Ian.

Before SieveStack, I worked as a postdoc and teaching assistant professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. During this time, I co-organized the Special Session on Solvable Lattice Models and their Applications and co-led the Physically Inspired Math Seminar.

Prior to UNC Chapel Hill, I was getting PhD in mathematics from Stanford University under guidance of Daniel Bump. My main research interests were in mathematical physics, integrable lattice models, representation theory, and algebraic combinatorics. I defended my thesis Combinatorics of Integrable Lattice Models on May 18, 2023. Iā€™m grateful to Dan Bump and the thesis committee: Persi Diaconis, Sourav Chatterjee, Lance Dixon, and Andy Hardt. During my time at Stanford, I organized the Solvable Lattice Models Seminar. Videos from the seminar are available on YouTube.
