Biography

My experience and interests include, in no particular order, continuum thermomechanics (including fluid dynamics), general relativity, quantum theory, statistical mechanics, differential geometry, and Bayesian probability calculus and decision theory (including machine learning) with applications to medicine and neuroscience. I also have a passion for modern logic and for history of physics. In each of the mentioned subjects I have published original research or given popularizing seminars and lectures.

My teaching and supervising experience ranges from ground-school children to Ph.D. students, in academic institutions and as private tutor.

In research and in teaching I believe in broadness and interdisciplinarity rather than specialization: the diverse fields in physics, mathematics, and the other sciences are just one, as one is the sky above us.
