Research Interests
I am interested in promoting and advancing the research that occurs at the intersection of computing and biomedicine. Particular areas of interest include physics-based simulation methods, mobile health technology, and data analysis techniques to improve and increase human movement. I enjoy teaching others – from researchers to the high school student – about the latest biocomputational developments through mass media as well as in the classroom. I am also a strong advocate for open science, developing and promoting tools (like SimTK) and policies that encourage the sharing of scientific knowledge and resources.
