Daniel Eshimiakhe, a Nigerian scholar, is pursuing a Ph.D. in Applied Geophysics at Ahmadu Bello University, building on his academic foundation with a B.Sc. in Physics and an M.Sc. in Applied Geophysics. Daniel's enthusiasm for artificial intelligence fuels his mission to leverage machine learning for resolving geophysical interpretation challenges, particularly the Werner deconvolution problem. With a passion for exploration, he aspires to broaden his horizons and knowledge beyond borders. Daniel has already made strides in his field, actively participating in two grant-funded research projects.
