I'm a 4th year PhD student in applied mathematics at Uppsala University in Sweden. BSc Mathematics, MSc Engineering physics.
Mainly working on modeling collective motion of animals, think flocks of birds or schools of fish. Design and analysis of so called self-propelled particle models, from general to specific experimentally motivated ones e.g. sheep-sheepdog, ants, fish and prawns. In the general case we search for a minimal set of biologically plausible local rules capable of producing a sensible global result. In particular, we want the group to stay together, move in space and exhibit some kind of nontrivial internal dynamics. Side projects include evolving self-propelled particle models to solve problems (efficient foraging etc.) and modeling the evolution of social norms.
