Hi, this is Alessandro Veneziani, originally from Bergamo,
Italy.
I am currently Associate Professor at the Department of
Mathematics and Computer Science of Emory University, Atlanta, GA
USA.
Since 2007 we have been settling down a group of people really
pasionate about Applied Math, Partial Differential Equations,
Scientific Computing, Cardiovascular Diseases
Our mission is to link theory to practice, from Theorems to the Operating Room/Bedside.
We called this E-(CM)2 (no, Einstein is E=mc2), it stands for
Emory - Center for Mathematics and Computing in Medicine (link)

A Repository of Data on Cerebral Aneurysms
As a follow-up of the ANEURISK Project (2005-2008), we have created a free data repository of images, geometries and CFD Analysis
http://ecm2.mathcs.emory.edu/aneuriskweb/index
We do believe that sharing of data and cross checking is a way of making our results more trustworthy

A BOOK ON SOLVING
NUMERICAL PDEs:
Solving Numerical PDE's
L. Formaggia, F. Saleri, A. Veneziani
Springer 2011
This book aims at introducing students to the numerical approximation of
Partial Differential Equations (PDEs). One of the difficulties of this
subject is to identify the right trade-off between theoretical concepts
and their use in practice. With that collection of examples and
exercises we try to address this issue by illustrating "standard"
examples which focus on basic concepts of Numerical Analysis, as
well as problems derived from practical applications which the student
is encouraged to formalize in terms of PDEs, analyze and solve. The
latter examples are derived from the experience of the authors in
research project developed in collaboration with scientists of
different fields (biology, medicine, etc.) and industry. We wanted this
book to be useful both to readers more interested in the theoretical
aspects, and also to those more concerned with the numerical
implementation. To this aim, solutions to the exercises have been
subdivided in three parts. The first concerns the mathematical analysis
of the problem, the second its numerical approximation and the third
part is devoted to implementation aspects and the analysis of the
results. The book consists of three parts. The firstdeals with basic
material and results provided as useful reference for the other
sections. In particular, we recall the basics of functional analysis
and the finite element method. The second part deals with steady
elliptic problems, solved with finite elements or finite differences,
while in the third part we address time-dependent problems, including
linear hyperbolic systems and Navier-Stokes equations. Two appendices
discuss some practical implementation issues and three-dimensional
applications. Each section contains a brief introduction to the subject
to make this book self contained.
The book is dedicated to the memory of Fausto Saleri.
The cover picture is a simulation
of racoons' rabies disease spreading over the State of NY, a work done
with Luca Gerardo Giorda and Joshua Keller (Honor Student at Emory,
class of 2011)

suggestions:
-
1) Be part of the solution,
NOT the
problem
-
2) Never give up
3) Hope is a good thing. Maybe the best of things
Here's the new grant(s) coming... :D
