David S. Bindel is Associate professor of Computer Science at Cornell University.  Before joining Cornell in 2009, he was a Courant Instructor of Mathematics at NYU from 2006-2009.  He works broadly in scientific computing, including in numerical linear algebra, numerical PDEs, and optimization, with a particular focus…

Matt Landreman’s research explores confinement and transport in shaped magnetic fields, especially those with hidden symmetry, and the control of this shaping with electromagnetic coils. Of particular interest is the translation of equations and insights from physics into numerical codes for practical computation. Some examples of this work…
