Research

My research in pure math has been primarily in several complex variables and dynamical systems. For the past several years I've focused on mathematical biology with an emphasis on analyzing dynamical systems and developing algorithms to better understand physiological processes. I have ongoing projects in cardiac modeling, immune system signalling, and embryo development. I'm particularly interested in questions of how changes in local properties (at the ion channel or cellular level) can influence global function and am interested in both theoretical and computational approaches to these questions. I've recently added a project on the design of filters for spectroscopy, which grew in part out of questions related to experiment design for biological systems.
