A note for graduate students who wish to work with me.


If you are considering applying to graduate schools, I encourage you to apply to our program. All admissions decisions are made by the Admission Committee. Because I receive a large number of inquiries, I am unfortunately unable to respond to every message individually. Please note that I do not take summer interns.

If you are already here at UC San Diego and are interested in working with me, please contact me by email so that we can arrange a meeting. We can discuss possible research problems or possible ways to find a good problem for you to work on.
If you obtain results, then you get yourself an advisor. (Nowadays, I often serve as a co-advisor.)
In the mean time, I encourage you to talk to other faculty members.
