Sourav Sahoo

I am a second-year PhD student at the Operations Research Center at MIT advised by Prof. Negin Golrezaei. I graduated with a dual degree (B.Tech + M.Tech) from the Department of Electrical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Abhishek Sinha. My primary research interests are online learning, game theory and market design.
