William Pettersson

I am a Research Associate at the University of Glasgow, having arrived in 2017. My research has focussed on algorithms in graph theory, with focus on resource allocation problems. I have helped find adoptive families for children in need, placed teachers in schools, and worked with the NHS on the UK kidney exchange programme to help people with kidney disease find suitable kidney donors.

Computer literacy has obviously been a fundamental part of my career, but in today's world it is becoming part of every career. This has motivated my outreach, both with PWS Africa and with other schemes. I look forward to helping with this workshop, and am keen to see what I can learn from the experiences of others.
