Biography

Andrew Best attained his PhD in 2021 from the Ohio State University under the supervision of Vitaly Bergelson, was a postdoc at BIMSA starting from 2021, and became an assistant professor at BIMSA in 2024. He works on ergodic theory and its interactions with number theory and additive combinatorics.
