Alasdair Hastewell
|
| Alasdair’s research interests lie at the intersection of numerical applied mathematics and biophysics, combining techniques from spectral methods, optimization, and dynamical systems theory with experimental data. He works closely with experimental collaborators to develop data analysis and model inference frameworks broadly applicable across various experimental systems, from animal behavior to bacterial swarming and developmental biology. Alasdair receieved his Ph.D. in applied mathematics in May 2024 from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where his advisor was Prof. Jörn Dunkel. Before graduate school, Alasdair did his undergraduate studies at MIT in Mathematics and Physics.
