Teaching

This list ought not be construed as a complete representation of what I do in any particular time period. I have a very active research and personal life, represented throughout my site.

Current (Fall 2024-) ¶

I am no longer teaching. My position at MPI-CBG is pure research. It was a good 17-year run, from 2007-2024. Time for a break.
