Dr. Matt Mizuhara awarded a National Science Foundation grant
Dr. Matt Mizuhara received an NSF grant to fund his research on self-similarity on dynamical networks. Self-similarity manifests in real-world networks in multiple ways, from the hierarchical self-similarity of the Internet, to the fractal-like structure of dendritic trees of neurons and protein interaction networks, and to the multiscale organization of social and epidemiological networks. Math modeling helps us understand… Continue Reading
