Changed the writing to not copy from his webpage. Please note this is my advisor and he asked me to create this page. I was unaware that I could not directly copy paste thinking he himself allowed me to do so. Added two exact references for his media coverage as this was mentioned in the comments. Note that I will add more later when I have time. His NSF and MSU awards now have exact links to NSF and MSU websites. His google scholar link has remained as this seems a valid reference.
