Hey everybody. I'm certainly looking forward to meeting all of you. CSSS sounds like an exciting opportunity for an interdisciplinary exchange of ideas.
After completing my doctorate in particle physics, I started postdocing in ecology. It's fun to leave reductionism behind and embrace complexity. I expect CSSS will provide a broad overview of approaches to complex systems across the disciplines. I hope to leave with a toolbox of modeling techniques relevant to ecology.
Project ideas: I would like to continue some research on applications of "sloppy modeling" (Brown and Sethna, 2003) to food webs. I also have an interest in the possibility of adapting lattice models from statistical mechanics to macroecology (Volkov, Banavar, and Maritan, 2004).
I am currently a postdoc in Tim Keitt's lab at UT. In August, I'll move to Bill Fagan's lab at UMD.
