Dr. Triebold earned his Ph.D. in Mathematics from Purdue University. Prior to doctoral work, he earned an M.S. in Mathematics from Indiana University – Purdue University Indianapolis and a B.S. in Mathematics from Olivet Nazarene University. He specializes in the modeling of biological systems. Dr. Triebold is also an MAA Project NExT fellow.
Dr. Triebold’s research interests lie in the development and use of computational models of fluid-solid interactions to better understand red blood cell motion in the microvasculature.
In his free time, Dr. Triebold enjoys hiking, reading, and baseball.
