Donald Estep Person1 #685337 Director, Canadian Statistical Sciences Institute, Canada Research Chair in Computational Probability and Uncertainty Quantification, Fellow of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, University Distinguished Professor Emeritus, Colorado State University, Chalmers University Jubilee Professor 2013-14, Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science, Simon Fraser University. | - I am the Director of CANSSI and a Canada Research Chair (Tier 1) in the Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science at Simon Fraser University.
- My research interests include uncertainty quantification for simulations of complex models, stochastic inverse problems, algorithms for efficient computation, and stochastic modeling of multiscale systems. My scope embraces theoretical analysis, development and implementation of algorithms, and application to scientific and engineering problems. I have close interdisciplinary collaborations with scientists and engineers in applications including ecology, materials science, detection of black holes, modeling of fusion reaction, analysis of nuclear fuels, hurricane storm surge forecasting, flow in porous media, and electromagnetic scattering.
- I have extensive experience teaching mathematics and statistics courses, especially for engineering and science students. I have written several textbooks that reflect my ideas about learning. I am generally interested in learning and teaching, and have devised training and review programs for teaching for both graduate students and faculty.
- In these pages, you will find information about my research and educational activities.
