Areas of Interest:

1. Physiologic Dynamics and Neural Control: cardiac, respiratory, locomotor, circadian rhythms, sleep

2. Network Physiology: interactions between integrated physiologic systems

3. Nonlinear Dynamics and Coupling: fractal and multifractal stochastic processes, stochastic feedback, phase synchronization

4. Excitable Media: myocardial tissue

5. Disordered Systems: spin and atomic chains with correlated disorder

6. Phase Transitions in Physical and Biological Systems

7. Econophysics: financial and social dynamics

Ongoing Projects:

Network Physiology: mapping interactions between physiological organ systems

Self-Organized Criticality as a new paradigm of sleep regulation

Multiple coexisting forms of physiologic coupling
