Dear friends and colleagues,
I am looking for a PhD student to join my group within Dartmouth's
Visual Computing Lab <https://vcl.cs.dartmouth.edu> in Fall 2021
(application deadline is December 15, 2020). My group works on a variety
of topics in computer graphics, including rendering, appearance
capture/modeling/fabrication, and computational photography.
This year, I am particularly interested in candidates for a project with
a strong mathematical component at the intersection of graphics,
physics, atmospheric sciences, and non-classical light/particle
transport (in collaboration with researchers at NASA JPL and The Ohio
State University). The project provides opportunities for
cross-supervision/collaboration between these three institutions, and
internship opportunities at JPL.
I've set up a page with more details about my lab and the research
project here:

If you are interested, please see the CS Department's application
instructions here:
https://web.cs.dartmouth.edu/graduate/applying/phd-program
I am committed to growing a diverse, interdisciplinary, and inclusive
research group. I am interested in applicants who are able to work
effectively with students, faculty, and staff from all backgrounds,
including but not limited to: racial and ethnic minorities, women,
individuals who identify with LGBTQ+ communities, individuals with
disabilities, individuals from any income background, and/or first
generation college graduates. Moreover, I am seeking applicants who not
only have the skills and passion for this research, but who also have a
demonstrated ability and commitment to increasing diversity in STEM and
computer science. Applicants should explain in their personal statement
how their teaching, research, service, and/or life experiences prepare
them to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Please forward to anybody who may be interested.
Thanks,
--
