I am currently a senior lecturer at the Queen Mary University of London. Previously I was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Warwick and the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics (AEI) and lecturer at The University of Queensland. I completed my PhD at the Australian National University under the supervision of Professor Ben Andrews. My research interests are geometric analysis and differential geometry. My research focusses on geometric flows, particularly the Ricci flow, mean curvature flow and the Willmore flow, as well as conformal immersions of surfaces.

I am currently the organiser of the QMUL Geometry and Analysis seminar. Details can be found at the departmental webpage.

I also co-organise the QMUL geometric analysis seminar. In this seminar, we discuss research level topics appropriate for beginning PhD students in geometric analysis. If you wish to be added to the mailing list for this seminar, please email me at h.nguyen@qmul.ac.uk.

Recently I was awarded (together with Reto Buzano) a grant from the EPSRC “Advances in Mean Curvature Flow: Theory and Applications. This grant will run for three years from 1 January 2019 until 31 December 2021. Further information can be found here.
