| Abstract: |
|---|
| In this informal talk I plan to discuss some of my current
research directions and give my personal perspective on life, work and
career choices after graduating from Penn State. My path has taken me
from studying predator-prey models in Moscow to developing numerical
methods for Voronoi diagrams and phase diagram calculation at Penn
State and analyzing microstructure evolution equation at Carnegie
Mellon. Currently on tenure-track at George Mason, I find myself
applying all these skills and mastering new concepts as I tackle a
wide range of applications, from biology to materials science and
chemistry, with the help of my mostly hard-working students and
collaborators. I am also constantly working on my time management
skills and trying to achieve work-life balance - the work in progress
I will be happy to report on. The talk should be relevant to graduate
students and early career researchers. |
