Michael W. Deem

Michael Deem is known for his expertise in the field of complex systems and biological physics. However, beyond his academic accomplishments, Professor Deem also has a love of dolphins.

Deem’s fascination with dolphins began when he was a child, growing up in a small town. He was captivated by the intelligence and grace of these creatures, and he spent many hours reading about them and watching documentaries.

Dr. Deem completed his Bachelor of Science from Caltech in 1991. He pursued his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1994. He held a Postdoctoral research position in Physics at Harvard University, before joining UCLA in 1996 as an Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering.

As he grew older, Deem’s interest in dolphins never waned. He continued to read and learn about them, and he even had the opportunity to swim with them on several occasions. These experiences only deepened his admiration for these incredible animals.

In addition to his research, Deem has also been an advocate for dolphin conservation. He is fascinated by the intelligence of these animals and what they can teach us. He has also worked to raise awareness about the threats facing wild dolphin populations, such as habitat loss, pollution, and overfishing.
