Senior🎓
Top SchoolChristopher Strickland is an associate professor and mathematical biologist with 11 years of academic experience applying dynamical systems, mathematical modeling, and scientific computing to questions in human and animal behavior. He has published extensively in top-quartile mathematical biology journals, mentored multiple PhD and MS students who transitioned directly into tenure-track or postdoctoral roles, and directs collaborative, federally funded projects including a substantive subcontract with Oak Ridge National Lab on opioid use disorder in veterans. Comfortable bridging disciplines, he has led interdisciplinary teams at SAMSI and UNC Chapel Hill and implements much of his research in Python, with reproducible code available on GitHub. Trained at Colorado State (PhD), Florida (MS), and Mississippi (BS/BA summa cum laude), he combines rigorous mathematical theory with applied, data-driven study design and a track record of securing competitive collaborative support from institutions like Simons and the Institute for Advanced Study.
