Areas of interest: Applied Mathematics, Scientific Computing. In particular I am working at the moment on:

Imaging and inversion in complex or random media;
Level set methods for shape reconstruction;
3D electromagnetic induction tomography; anisotropic media; sensitivity analysis; adjoint fields;
Biomedical imaging.

The 10th Conference on Biomedical EIT took place in Manchester June 2009, combined with a workshop on Electromagnetic Inverse Problems.

upcoming: Inverse Problems: 2010 special section on electromagnetic inverse problems: emerging methods and novel applications

I am/have been involved in the following exciting projects:

European consortium on 'Integrated Technologies for In-Vivo Molecular Imaging' (sponsored by the EU)
Microwave medical imaging (sponsored by the Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia, Spain)
Reservoir characterization using level sets (sponsored by the company Repsol-YPF)
Time-reversal mirrors and Inverse Source Problems (sponsored by the ONR)
Level set methods in 3D inversion of applied geophysical electromagnetic data (the IMAGE group at UBC)
Level set methods in 2D cross-borehole electromagnetic tomography, with E Miller and C Rappaport (Center for Subsurface Sensing and Imaging Systems, CenSSIS, Northeastern University, Boston, USA)
Level set methods in diffuse optical tomography and fluorescence lifetime imaging
3D Electromagnetic Imaging of Conducting Contaminant Plumes in isotropic and anisotropic media, with G C Papanicolaou (Stanford University), J G Berryman (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, LLNL), and H Bertete-Aguirre (LLNL)
