M. Gregory Forest

M. Gregory Forest serves as Grant Dahlstrom Distinguished Professor and CCIAM Director in the Department of Mathematics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. His office is located in Phillips Hall 316A with contact email forest@unc.edu.

His research integrates mathematical modeling and experimental data analytics across biological domains:

• Chromosome biology dynamics
• Respiratory infection mechanisms
• Immune response modeling
• Mucosal membrane transport
• Drug delivery optimization
• Translational medical applications

Publication trends reveal an evolution from foundational nonlinear wave theory (1980s KdV equation work) to contemporary biophysics, with recent emphasis on biogel mechanics and polymer dynamics for mucosal drug delivery systems. This demonstrates sustained focus on applying advanced mathematics to complex biological phenomena.
