I’m a professor in the departments of Mathematics & Statistics and of Biology at McMaster University. My interests range widely in spatial, theoretical, mathematical, computational and statistical ecology, evolution and epidemiology; plant community, ecosystem, and epidemic dynamics; and whatever else takes my fancy. I run the mac-theobio research group jointly with Jonathan Dushoff and David Earn.
I am currently Director of the School of Computational Science and Engineering and Acting Associate Chair (Graduate) for Mathematics.
My schedule for the current semester.
Products
- Go to Google Scholar for the best-curated list of my publications (or see my ORCID iD profile)
- Many of my talks are posted on Slideshare
- I’m active on Stack Overflow (and some on CrossValidated)
- I have written two books: Ecological Models and Data in R and a Very Short Introduction to Infectious Disease (with Marta Wayne). The second edition of the VSI book will be available shortly: since the book has no references, I’ve posted notes and references here.
- my CV (short, full)
- I occasionally post statistical/computing notes at Rpubs; I also maintain a popular GLMM FAQ, and keep miscellanous mixed models resources here
