We will discuss the design of [Turing.jl](https://github.com/TuringLang/Turing.jl), its key features, how it compares to other PPLs, and finally why it might be of interest to both practitioners and inference researchers. + biography: Tor Erlend Fjelde is a PhD student in the Computational and Biological Learning (CBL) lab at the University of Cambridge. His research interests are mainly in the areas of sampling, be that for applications in Bayesian inference or molecular systems, and probabilistic programming. # missing + photo: "tor_fjelde" diff --git a/assets/speakers/tor_fjelde.jpg b/assets/speakers/tor_fjelde.jpg new file mode 100644 index 0000000..5ada617 Binary files /dev/null and b/assets/speakers/tor_fjelde.jpg differ diff --git a/assets/speakers/tor_fjelde.png b/assets/speakers/tor_fjelde.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000..c61f79c Binary files /dev/null and b/assets/speakers/tor_fjelde.png differ
