Dr Bani Anvari was a member of TSL between 2013 and 2016, and was involved in an EPSRC-funded project focusing on the optimal planning and execution of prefabricated construction projects.

Before joining TSL, Bani obtained a BSc in Civil Engineering from the University of Science and Culture (Iran) in 2008, and an MSc in Advanced Architectural Studies from the Bartlett School at University College London in 2009. During her PhD studies at Imperial College London, she focused on the mathematical modelling of shared space schemes.

Bani is currently a Lecturer in Intelligent Mobility at the Centre for Transport Studies (CTS) within the Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering (CEGE) in the Faculty of Engineering at UCL.
