He was a computational scientist at the Atomic Energy Commission's Rocky Flats Facility, and he has held visiting positions at Stanford University (Computer Science), University of Virginia (Applied Mathematics), and the Boeing Company (Phantom Works). His research interests are numerical linear algebra and Markov Chains. You can find out more about Professor Meyer's through his Homepage.
Mette Olufsen msolufse@math.ncsu.edu	Professor Mette Olufsen received a M.S. in mathematics and computer science (1993) and a Ph.D. (1998) all from Roskilde University, Denmark. While pursuing her doctorate degree, she worked for Math-Tech, Copenhagen, as a research scientist on a project that aimed at developing an anesthesia simulator. Later she had a postdoc at the Center for BioDynamics and Department of Mathematics, Boston University. She joined the Mathematics Department at NCSU in the fall of 2001. Mette Olufsen is a mathematical biologist specializing in modeling of physiological systems. Her main interest is in modeling fluid dynamics of arterial blood flow and understanding cardiovascular blood pressure and blood flow control. Specifically understanding the dynamics involved with standing up too quickly, running, or head up tilt. You can find out more about Professor Olufsen through her Homepage.
