Bio
George earned his Ph.D. in Computational Science and Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University. He held a post-doctoral appointment at NYU's Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences. He has held faculty positions at the University of Pennsylvania and Georgia Institute of Technology.
George's research group focuses on computational mathematics and the invention of new parallel algorithms for physics-based simulations and large scale data analysis. The group is developing technologies for discovery and innovation that will harness the upcoming breakthroughs in high performance computing, including exascale platforms.
Current research topics include parallel algorithms, numerical algorithms for integral and differential equations, inverse problems, data assimilation, computational statistics, biological complex fluids, blood rheology, soft tissue and cardiovascular mechanics, and medical image analysis.
