     Mark M. Meerschaert
      is a University Distinguished Professor in the Department of Statistics and
        Probability at Michigan State
        University.  Meerschaert
      has professional experience in the areas of probability,
      statistics, statistical physics, mathematical modeling, operations
      research, partial differential equations, and applications. He
      started his professional career in 1979 as a systems analyst at
      Vector Research, Inc. of Ann Arbor
      and Washington
        D.C., where he
      worked on a wide variety of modeling projects for government and
      industry. Meerschaert earned his
      doctorate in Mathematics from the University of Michigan in 1984. He has
      taught at the University
      of Michigan, Albion College, Michigan
      State University, the University
      of Nevada in Reno, the University of Washington in
      Seattle, and the University
      of Otago
      in Dunedin, New Zealand. His
      current research interests include fractional calculus, anomalous
      diffusion, continuous time random walks, limit theorems and
      parameter estimation for infinite variance probability models,
      heavy tail models in finance, modeling river flows with heavy
      tails and periodic covariance structure, medical imaging,
      fractional partial differential equations, and ground water flow
      and transport.
