Peter has graduated in Physics and wrote his PhD thesis at the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology in Germany. He worked as Postdoc with Tim Palmer at the University of Oxford and has taken up a position as University Research Fellow of the Royal Society at the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) in 2017. Peter is contributing to the development and optimization of weather and climate models for modern supercomputers. He is focussing on a better understanding of model error and model uncertainty, on the use of reduced numerical precision that is optimised for a given level of model error, on global cloud-resolving simulations with ECMWF's forecast model, and the use of machine learning, and in particular deep learning, to improve the workflow and predictions.
