I am a Professor of Mathematics at the University of Alabama, with a B.Sc. in Mathematics from Bristol (1984), an M.Math from Cambridge (1985) and a Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics from Arizona (1989). I spent one year (1989-1990) as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow and 3 years as a Research Assistant Professor in the Biomedical Engineering Department at Northwestern University (1990-1993). I have also held numerous visiting positions at the University of Michigan and Tulane University (where I am an Adjunct Professor). My research interests are in applied mathematics, fluid dynamics and scientific computing. I am particularly interested in developing theoretical models to simulate and analyze nonlinear physical phenomena primarily with applications in the biomedical sciences. Examples include the closure and reopening of the lung's airways. See my research page for more details. For a complete (and current) list of papers see my Google Scholar listing.
