The area of research in Christoffer’s PhD is statistical modelling of extreme events with missing and censored data. Martin Bladt is his principal supervisor and Thomas Mikosch is his co-supervisor.
Christoffer is born and raised in Denmark, and both his bachelor’s and master’s in mathematics-economics are from the University of Copenhagen.
“As a student job, I have worked 1,5 years in a financial institution, which I did not thrive in. From this experience, I became more motivated and certain that I wanted to pursue a PhD”, says Christoffer.
“In my studies, I have had a range of interests, but all in connection to probability theory. I have not worked extensively with extreme value theory, but I always have had a general curiosity for it and especially its applications. So, I am really looking forward to broadening my understanding”.
