Postdoctoral Assistant

• Dr Alexander Quintero-Velez (in Glasgow 2009-2012)

  Alex received his PhD from the University of Utrecht in 2009. His research focuses on the study of derived categories in algebraic geometry and string theory, with an emphasis on questions relating to homological mirror symmetry. Alex is the postdoctoral research assistant on EPSRC grant EP/G004048.
