Vahid Dabbaghian

Vahid Dabbaghian is the Director of the Modelling of Complex Social Systems (MoCSSy) Program since June 2009 and an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Simon Fraser University. Vahid completed his Ph.D. thesis on computing representations of finite groups in 2003 at Carlton University. Following this, he has been a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Computer Science at University of Calgary and the Department of Mathematics at Simon Fraser University. He has been the leader of the Criminal Justice System project in the Complex Systems Modelling Group at the IRMACS centre from May 2006 to May 2009. Vahid divides his research interests between the field of Computational Algebra and the field of Mathematical Modelling. He has published multiple scientific papers and technical reports. He is a co-author of the book "Modelling in Healthcare" published by the American Mathematical Society in 2010.
