My name is Zachary Turner. I am a second year PhD student at Duke University in the Mathematics Department advised by Alexander Kiselev. I am an NSF GRFP fellow and a Duke Sloan UCEM Affiliate. I graduated from Arizona State University with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics in Spring 2024. I am interested in partial differential equations of chemotaxis and fluid dynamics, and computational modeling in the context of mathematical biology. My email is zach.turner@duke.edu.
