Michael Assis is a program manager and mathematical physics researcher based in Melbourne with 11 years of experience bridging theoretical research, computational development, and public engagement. He has a PhD in theoretical and mathematical physics and a track record of producing exact enumeration code and visualization tools for lattice and exactly solvable models, including work that connected origami foldable lattices to statistical mechanics and led to coverage in Quanta Magazine. At the University of Melbourne he manages programs while continuing to develop computational methods; he has also built outreach and education programs as a textbook editor, seminar organizer, and leader of the Melbourne Origami Group. Equally at home writing C/C++ for transfer-matrix computations as he is teaching workshops or securing grants for arts–science collaborations, he brings a rare blend of rigorous mathematical insight and community-focused leadership.
