Postgraduate Opportunities

I am always looking for qualified enthusiastic PhD students in the area of complex systems. You will normally have a background (undergraduate) degree in physics or mathematics and a keen interest in stochastic dynamics, complex systems and both mathematical work and computer simulations. Further details about my research interests can be found at
