Eric Rawdon is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of St. Thomas's College of Arts and Sciences, specializing in mathematical knot theory and its applications to biological systems. His research examines topological aspects of protein structures, spatial entanglement, and knotting phenomena in confined polymers.
Research spans theoretical knot theory, computational topology, and mathematical biology, with recent work focusing on protein knot analysis, topological databases, and applications of knot theory to medical imaging and forensic science. His group develops computational tools for topological analysis including AlphaKnot and KnotProt databases.
Recent publications demonstrate advances in understanding protein entanglement, knot classification methods, and topological applications in biomedical contexts. His work bridges abstract mathematical theory with practical applications in structural biology and medical imaging.
