McKnight Presidential Professor of Mathematics
School of Mathematics, University of

President-elect, Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics
(SIAM)
I am a mathematician and educator. My research mostly concerns numerical analysis, partial
differential equations, mechanics, and the interplay between these fields. Much of my recent effort has been directed
toward the development of the finite element exterior calculus. In 2009, I will assume
the presidency of SIAM, the largest applied mathematics and computational science
professional organization in the world. From 2001 to 2008 I directed the IMA, the
world's leading interdisciplinary mathematical research institute.
