Joel Miller PhD
Post Doctoral Fellow, Division of Mathematical Modeling, UBCCDC
Dr. Joel C. Miller is a Post Doctoral Fellow with the Division of Mathematical Modeling at the University 
of British Columbia Centre for Disease Control (UBCCDC). Dr. Miller received his BS in mathematics from Harvey Mudd College in Claremont, CA (USA) and his Ph.D. in applied mathematics from the University of Cambridge in Cambridge, (UK). Dr. Miller completed a 2-year postdoctoral fellowship at Los Alamos National Laboratory in Los Alamos, New Mexico (USA).
Research Interests:
I am interested in several distinct branches of applied mathematics.
I study interfacial instabilities of (primarily elastic) fluid flows, information theory and its relation to search strategies, and dynamical processes on networks.
Current Research:
My research at UBCCDC focuses on the mathematical modeling of disease spread within an interconnected population. I focus on how the heterogeneity of the population or the topology of the connections influence the rate of spread and size of epidemics.
