Science is most interesting when it subverts expectations. As a medic in the army, I used to think of the world in terms of strict hierarchies; some central governing agency gives orders, which trickle down the chain of command. However, it turns out that most biological systems do not work this way, instead distributing control among the members of the group (be they genes, cells, animals). I have since dedicated my research career to understanding how this works. Currently, I am a postdoctoral fellow at Arizona State University in the School of Complex Adaptive Systems, which is the same university where I received my PhD.
Research Interests
I am broadly interested in using both experimental and theoretical tools to uncover the cognitive mechanisms that underlie self-organization in complex adaptive systems. I am also interested in the optimal design of experiments for the biological sciences.
