Matthew J. Zahr is an assistant professor in the Department of
Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Notre
Dame. From 2016-2018, he was the Luis W. Alvarez Postdoctoral
Fellow at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. He received
a M.S. and Ph.D. in 2016 from Stanford University in Computational
and Mathematical Engineering under the supervision of Charbel Farhat
and a B.S. in 2011 from the University of California, Berkeley in
Civil and Environmental Engineering. His research expertise and
interests lie in the design and application of numerical methods
to solve important problems that arise in science, engineering,
and medicine.
