SPEED Lab Former Members

This was the group as of Fall 2005:

(Amanda, Jen, David H., Ben, David G.)

Amanda Criner
Undergraduate Student
Amanda did her B.A. in math, and worked on a variety of spatial epidemiological models with me from Fall 2004--Fall 2006, primarily household-structured models. She also attended MTBI in summer 2005. She is currently working on a PhD in Applied Math at North Carolina State University.

David Gosselin
Undergraduate Student
David was in the Honors College; from Fall 2005--Spring 2006, he worked with me on ways to more efficiently simulate spatial stochastic population models, and on measuring some spatial and temporal features of the distribution of hosts in Internet address space. In Jan. 2007, David finished his honors thesis on ``Disease Spreading Across Social Networks.'' I was a committee member; Larry Latour in computer science was advisor. David is now working as a software engineer for BAE Systems in New Hampshire.

Jennifer Houle
Undergraduate Student
Jennifer was in the Honors College. Jennifer spent the 2004-2005 academic year studying abroad in Ireland, and worked with me from Fall 2005--Spring 2006. She finished her undergraduate honors thesis with me in May 2006 on "A spatial population model on a dynamic heterogeneous landscape", attended MTBI in summer 2006, and then headed to University of Limerick in Ireland for a master's degree in Music Technology.

Ben Morin
Graduate Student
Ben worked with me from Spring 2005--Spring 2006; he finished his M.A. in math with me in May 2006. His thesis was on "The effect of static and dynamic spatially structured disturbances on a locally dispersing population model". He attended MTBI in summer 2005 and 2006, and then headed to Oregon State University to work on a PhD in math, via the Ecosystem Informatics IGERT.

Pam Reitsma
Undergraduate Student
Pam was an undergraduate in Math, with minors in human nutrition and neuroscience. She finished her degree in December 2007. Pam was an adjunct member of the group around 2006-2007; she did a bit with spatial population models, but then became more interested in neurobiology. Pam attended MTBI in summer 2006 and 2007. Pam will be entering the PhD program in Math at the University of Pittsburgh in Fall 2008.
