I’m an emeritus mathematician at Stanford University in California. I’m a co-founder and Executive Director Emeritus of Stanford’s H-STAR institute, a co-founder of the Stanford mediaX research network, and a Senior Researcher at CSLI.
I’m a World Economic Forum Fellow, a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society.
My current research is focused on the use of different media to teach and communicate mathematics to diverse audiences, with a particular focus of late on video games. I am a co-founder and President of an educational technology company, BrainQuake, that designs and builds video-game-based products for mathematics learning. I spent many years working on the design of information/reasoning systems for intelligence analysis. My other research interests include: theory of information, models of reasoning, applications of mathematical techniques in the study of communication, and mathematical cognition.
I’ve written 33 books and over 80 published research articles. I’m a recipient of the Pythagoras Prize, the Peano Prize, the Carl Sagan Award, and the Joint Policy Board for Mathematics Communications Award. In 2003, I was recognized by the California State Assembly for my “innovative work and longtime service in the field of mathematics and its relation to logic and linguistics.”
For many years, I was “the Math Guy” on National Public Radio.
