Hello!

My name is Alexis, but friends call me Lexy-Lou (or Lex, or), and I am a social epidemiologist and social ecologist. I am just now defending my dissertation at Harvard School of Public Health where I am majoring in quantitative methods in the department of Society, Health and Human Development. The third chapter of my dissertation entails a loop analysis of depressive experience, urban neighborhood property abandonment and urban greenspace programs.

My interests in complex systems analysis are diverse:

* I have an abiding interest in the ontological and ideological commitments implicit in the choice of a specific analytic method. What kinds of inquiry are mobilized by systems analyses? How do they differ from (non-systems) alternatives?

* I have recently pubished an implementation of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Levins Richard Levins'] qualitative loop analysis ([http://www.doyenne.com/LoopAnalyst Loop Analyst]) for [http://r-project.org R] on [http://cran.r-project.org CRAN] with some recent extensions. However, I am not a computer scientist, and the computationally intensive nature of the method demands that I produce more efficient code for the current implementation as well as for future extensions. Therefore I hope to sharpen my mathematical and computing skills.

* I have found loop analysis of system behavior to be a rewarding and robust analytic method. However, this has only been my introduction to systems approaches, and i would both to extend my analytic repertoire, as well as situate my "toolkit" within the wider domain of systems methods.

I am very much looking forward to learning and sharing with you in the program this summer, and to my first visit to China. I am also an avid [http://www.capoeira.bz/ capoeirista] and am looking for other capoeirista's to play with in Beijing while I am there!
