Academic Background
Academic Background
At Edinburgh I studied Pure Mathematics but switched to more applied mathematics at the Mathematics of Planet Earth Centre for Doctoral Training. My Masters taught courses covered Probability, Statistics, Computational Mathematics, and Dynamical Systems. My Ph.D. focused on the application of dynamical systems theory to the study of tipping points in geophysical systems. You can find a pdf-format CV here.
