Research Interests

In general, my interests are in a subarea of model theory that could be called stability-theoretic classification theory. This field
attempts to generalize the methods of stability theories to classes of models on which a dependence relation is defined. Currently, I am working on coordinatization theorems in simple theories. A second active project is the development of a framework for dependence relations which generalize forking.
