I am an assistant professor in the Division of Applied Mathematics at Brown University. My research interests revolve around various aspects of applied mathematics and computational biology. Recently, my group has also been focusing on data-driven modeling and Bayesian approaches to model selection.

Curious about the header image? Here’s an article and a video about it. Some specific interests include:

• Dissipative particle dynamics and mesoscale computational modeling; see our papers on lipid bilayer membranes and DNA diffusion in nano-fluidic devices.
• Probabilistic modeling of biological processes; see, e.g., my work with collaborators on evolutionary game theory.
• Data-driven modeling and Bayesian uncertainty quantification; see, e.g., our papers on epidemics in population networks, DNA methylation, and biological micro-swimmers.
• Homogenized descriptions of oxygen transport in arterial networks and reconstructive tissue flaps.

I occasionally work on projects pertaining to stochastic homogenization and random media. My research has been funded in part by the National Science Foundation through NSF CAREER award #1552903 and NSF CDS&E-MSS award #1521266.
