Statement:
Research Interests: Algebraic Topology: (a) stable homotopy theory, especially from the chromatic perspective; (b) spectra with continuous actions by profinite groups, and their homotopy fixed points; (c) the Multiplicative Ring Spectra project of Paul Goerss and Mike Hopkins; and (d) Morava E-theory.

Selected research publications:

• Explicit fibrant replacement for discrete G-spectra, submitted (2007).
• Iterated homotopy fixed points for the Lubin-Tate spectrum, submitted (2007).
• The site R^+_G for a profinite group G, submitted (2006).
• The homotopy orbit spectrum for profinite groups, submitted (2006).
• The E_2-term of the descent spectral sequence for continuous G-spectra, New York J. of Math., 12 (2006), 183-191.
• Homotopy fixed points for L_{K(n)}(E_n \wedge X) using the continuous action, Journal of Pure and Applied Algebra, 206 (2006) 322-354.
