Profiles in "Mathematical Biology" Expertise Area

  • Kostelich is interested in nonlinear dynamics, uncertainty quantification, and mathematical biology.
  • Gardner's research focuses on computational and theoretical fluid dynamics and the numerical solution of nonlinear partial differential equations.
  • Crook uses computational approaches to study the dynamics of neurons and networks of neurons. She also contributes to an international collaboration for describing, exchanging, and validating complex models.
  • Camacho co-directed summer undergraduate research programs; research in mathematics applied to biology and sociology. She's received mentoring, research, and service awards from AAAS, PAESMEM, SACNAS, HENAAC, and ASU
  • Wirkus pursues research in mathematical biology and dynamical systems; authored two undergraduate textbooks on differential equations; does extensive undergraduate mentoring and is Sun Devil Family Assn Professor of the Year.
  • Kuang is the author or co-author of over 209 refereed publications and 2 major textbooks in mathematical biology. He has done extensive work in developing data-based differential equation models in biology and medicine.
  • Armbruster is interested in mathematical modeling: Collective behavior of swarms, disaster recovery, production flow in semiconductor factories, signal pathways, and analysis of the evolution of ant colonies.
  • Milner studies structured population models, including demography, epidemics, ecology, and tumor growth as well as how to dispel misconceptions in school mathematics.
  • Smith's research focuses on differential equations, dynamical systems, and their applications to the biological sciences.
  • Thieme works in the fields of differential, difference and integral equations and of dynamical systems.
