Academic background
I received my Ph.D degree in 1999 from the Program in Applied Mathematics at the University of Arizona. I was awarded a National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in 2000 and used it to work with Alan Hastings at the University of California in Davis for two years before taking an assistant professorship in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville in 2002. I joined the faculty here at the University of Michigan in 2005 where I hold joint appointments in the Department of Mathematics and the Center for the Study of Complex Systems.

$910K NSF grant to fund new advanced program in biology and mathematics
Congratulations to EEB Professors Aaron King and Mark Hunter on their key roles in this interdepartmental venture with faculty from math, MCDB, and emergency medicine. The National Science Foundation has awarded $910,000 to develop this undergraduate program.
Dubbed SUBMERGE, the program will fund up to 12 students for two years at a time, to learn cutting-edge research. Changes will be implemented in the math and biology curriculums, resources and training experience in theory and experiments will teach students to become interdisciplinary scientists.
