Presentation

My research interests lie in the area of nonlinear dynamical systems and their applications in mathematical neuroscience. In particular, I work on: Dynamics of neural systems, Piecewise linear dynamical systems, Nonlinear oscillations and bifurcations, Discrete nonlinear waves, Numerical schemes, Mathematical psychology.
