Research
My
interests are in physics-based modeling, scientific computing and
visualization. I am a recent Ph.D. graduate holding dual-degrees from
the
Departments of Physics & Astronomy (Ph.D. 2005) and Computer
Science
(M.S. 2006) at Louisiana State University (LSU).
My
doctoral research
in physics was conducted at the University of Southern California at
the Collaboratory
for
Advanced Computing and Simulations (CACS).
My dissertation was on molecular dynamics simulations of pressure
driven phase transformations in CdSe nanorods. For this research I
developed code in FORTRAN and C to run on parallel computing platforms.
For my MS thesis in computer science, I developed computer-aided
diagnostic algorithms to perform tumor-shape analysis in digital
mammograms. I also have experience in developing real-time interactive
scientific 3D visualization tools in OpenGL. |
