Academic Achievements
- Published multiple papers including work on a non-equilibrium analogue of the Boltzmann distribution, correlation thresholds in steady-state distributions, local–global correlations in reaction kinetics, Markov chains with random transition rates, programming hierarchical self-organization, and a new preprint on rattling theory.
Research Experience
- In October 2025, his visiting position at SFI was announced; in September 2025, he attended the Postdocs in Complexity Global Conference; in August 2025, he gave a talk in the stochastics seminar at Georgia Tech; in June 2025, Siobhan Roberts wrote an article about his work at SLMath with Frank den Hollander and Dana Randall; in April 2025, he gave a talk in the Stanford probability seminar; in January 2025, he started a Berlekamp Postdoctoral Fellowship at SLMath for the program on the Probability and Statistics of Discrete Structures; in November 2024, he gave a seminar talk at SFI during a two-week visit; in October 2024, his work with Dana Randall on a non-equilibrium analogue of the Boltzmann distribution was highlighted by Georgia Tech and Phys.org.
Education
- Currently a postdoctoral fellow at Georgia Tech and a visiting postdoctoral fellow at the Santa Fe Institute. In Spring 2025, he was the Berlekamp postdoctoral fellow at the Simons Laufer Mathematical Sciences Institute.
Background
- A mathematician and data scientist, interested in the relationship between the behavior of individuals and that of the collectives they comprise. He develops theory and methods to answer questions like how the properties of tissues emerge from those of cells.
Miscellany
- On the 2025–2026 academic job market.
