Background
Previous Academic Positions:
Weiss Instructor of Physics, Rice University, Houston TX
Visiting Assistant Professor of Physics, Colgate University, Hamilton, NY
Interests
I am interested in developing theoretical methods and computational simulations to study complex networks and time series in nature.
- Theory of strongly correlated many electronic networks, especially high temperature superconductors.
- Physics based models in biological networks, such as the bacteria phage co-evolving system, COVID-19 diffusion modeling, etc.
- Statistical theory of the personalized critical care
- Dynamics of social networks
