Since 1974, he has been a staff member, Laboratory Fellow and now Senior Laboratory Fellow  in the Theoretical Biology and Biophysics Group at Los Alamos National Laboratory.  He was also head of that group from 1995-2001. He spent 1978 - 1979 at Brown Univ. as an Assistant Professor of Medical Sciences, was a visiting scientist at the Mathematical Institute, Oxford Univ. in 1986 and a visiting professor of Physics at Ecole Normale Superieure, Paris in 1990, and the University of Paris VII in 1992. He is an affiliate of the Center for Nonlinear Studies at LANL, and also an External Professor at the Santa Fe Institute. He also holds adjunct professorships in bioinformatics at Boston Univ., in biostatistics at the Univ of Rochester School of Medicine and in biology at the Univ of New Mexico. His research interests are in developing mathematical models of viral kinetics and immune responses.
