Brief Biography
Kody Law is a Senior Research Scientist in the SRI Center for Uncertainty Quantification at KAUST. He received his Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Massachusetts in 2010 and subsequently held a position as a postdoctoral research fellow at the Mathematics Institute of Warwick University until he joined KAUST in 2013. During his short academic career, he has given more than 50 invited lectures around the world and published 35 peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters in the areas of computational applied mathematics, physics, and dynamical systems. His current research interests are focused on inverse uncertainty quantification in high dimensions, i.e. on large(target --> extreme) scale: data assimilation, filtering, and statistical inverse problems.
