Jason Czak

Jason Czak is a Lecturer in the Physics Department at James Madison University (JMU), joining in 2023. His research focuses on condensed matter physics and non-equilibrium systems, particularly exploring spatiotemporal patterns in chaotic systems using statistical physics and nonlinear dynamics. He holds a PhD in Theoretical and Computational Condensed Matter Physics from Virginia Tech (2022), and prior degrees from Delaware State University, Indiana University of Pennsylvania, and Penn State.

Research interests include out-of-equilibrium dynamical behavior, stochastic population dynamics, and applications of statistical physics to biological systems. His current projects involve control theory approaches to study spatiotemporal patterns in chaotic systems. Notable publications include work on time-delayed feedback schemes (Phys. Rev. E, 2021) and Raman intensity profiles in BN/GaN superlattices (Journal of Physics D, 2013).
