Welcome

I am an asso­ciate pro­fes­sor in the Depart­ment of Math­e­mat­ics and Sta­tis­tics at the Uni­ver­si­ty of North­ern British Columbia.

My research inter­ests are in par­tial dif­fer­en­tial equa­tions (PDE) and non­lin­ear analy­sis. Key­words relat­ed to my research include: ellip­tic and par­a­bol­ic non­lin­ear PDE, trav­el­ing fronts and prop­a­ga­tion phe­nom­e­na, non­lo­cal dif­fu­sion, frac­tion­al Lapla­cian, reac­tion-dif­fu­sion sys­tems, spec­tral the­o­ry, math­e­mat­i­cal biol­o­gy and ecol­o­gy, pop­u­la­tion dynam­ics, inte­gro-dif­fer­en­tial equa­tions, and semi­lin­ear wave equa­tions. For more details on my research, see my pub­li­ca­tions page.

I obtained my PhD from Aix-Mar­seille Uni­ver­sité in 2008 under the super­vi­sion of François Hamel. I then held a PIMS Post­doc­tor­al Fel­low­ship at the Uni­ver­si­ty of British Colum­bia, Van­cou­ver until 2010. From 2010 until 2011, I was a Post­doc­tor­al Asso­ciate at Carnegie Mel­lon Uni­ver­si­ty in Pitts­burgh, USA. From 2012 until 2014, I was an NSERC Post­doc­tor­al Fel­low at the Uni­ver­si­ty of Toron­to. I held fac­ul­ty posi­tions at the Amer­i­can Uni­ver­si­ty of Beirut (2014–2016) and the Uni­ver­si­ty of New Brunswick (2016–2019).
