Description: The fourth in a series from Quantum Gravity Research, each episode focusing on a different scientist, their origins and backgrounds, where their love of science started and how they came to work at QGR. Dugan Hammock received a Bachelors degree from the University of Texas at Austin and a Masters degree from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, both in pure Mathematics. Independently he has done extensive work utilizing computer rendering software to produce geometric visualizations and animations; this work has brought him to such places as Tübingen, Germany and the Netherlands. His most recent work involves the development of computational methods to visualize and better understand 4-dimensional geometries and other hyper-dimensional structures.
