Research and Travel Opportunities My
academic research interests are broad, ranging from space physics to
pharmacotherapy, and human factors psychology. I use advanced mathematical
techniques to create models, and couple these with detailed analysis of data.
In space
physics, my activities encompass the physics of solar wind turbulence and
propagation and the interaction of the solar wind with the non-magnetized
bodies. Students are invited to work with me on funded projects. Students have
published conference and also peer reviewed journal papers with me in areas
such as psychophysics, pharmacotherapy, medical physics, statistical physics,
and space weather. Students have also traveled for research to Los Angeles
and San Francisco (CA), Boulder and Snowmass (CO), Banff (Canada), and Seoul
(Korea). I direct the Space Weather Undergraduate Research Laboratory (SWURL)
at Presbyterian College. At SWURL we conduct a variety of research in
space physics including space plasma physics, magnetospheric physics,
ionospheric physics, atmospheric physics, and heliospheric studies. Students
interested in working in the laboratory should contact me directly. All
students should provide their academic records, and a resume. The most
important qualification is dependability, and students from all majors will
be considered for a variety of different research experiences. |

Dr. Wanliss is
currently teaching physics courses and also pursues space physics
research. He focuses on space weather effects, in particular magnetic
storms and magnetospheric substorms.
