    I am an associate professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of California, Riverside. As co-director of the Riverside Graphics Lab, I lead research on physics-based animation, computational physics, and computational biology.

    I studied mathematics, computer science, and art as an undergrad at UIUC. After graduating, I went to work for Wall Street for several years and then returned to my original love of computer graphics for graduate school at Stanford.

    Tamar Shinar is an assistant professor of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of California, Riverside, where she co-leads the Riverside Graphics Lab. She completed her Ph.D. at Stanford University in 2008, where she developed techniques for physics-based animation of solids, fluids, and solid-fluid coupling. She was a postdoctoral fellow at the Courant Institute at NYU, where she developed mathematical and computational models of cell biomechanics. Her research interests center on physics-based animation, with a particular focus on solid-fluid coupling. At UCR, she teaches courses on computer graphics, scientific computing, and physics-based animation.
