Before arriving in Madison, Saverio received a Ph.D. in mathematics at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, then held postdoctoral positions in the Mechanical/Aerospace Engineering department at UCSD and in the School of Engineering at Brown University. His research interests lie at the interface between fluid dynamics, soft matter, biolocomotion, and numerical analysis, and he is a co-founder of the Madison Applied Mathematics Laboratory. All QBio sponsored talks take place on Wednesdays at 2:00 p.m. in the 3rd floor Orchard View room of the Discovery Building. Talks are open to the public. Access to the room is via the elevator behind Aldo’s Cafe in the Northeast corner of the building.
