Dr. Kevin Slote is an applied mathematician and data scientist whose work combines nonlinear dynamical systems, causal discovery, topological data analysis, machine learning, and complex systems science. He earned a Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics from Georgia State University, where his doctoral research was advised by Prof. Igor Belykh and performed postdoctoral research under Erik Bollt. His research develops mathematical and computational methods for discovering governing equations, causal mechanisms, and predictive biomarkers from complex data.
