Current Teaching (Previous)
In Fall 2022, I will teach two mathematical modeling courses: one focusing on biological processes and the other on data.
- MAP 4191: Mathematical Modeling of Data (MW 3:30pm-4:50pm in MSB 109)
- MAP 4484: Mathematical Biology (TR 4:00pm-5:20pm in MSB 407)
Research Interests
- Nonlinear differential equations and dynamical systems
- Mathematical modeling of infectious diseases
- Mathematical ecology and epidemiology
