Jeff Kinne
This page is maintained by me, Jeff Kinne. I am a professor of computer science at Indiana State University. I have taught just about every CS course that we offer at the BS and MS levels. I was trained in computational complexity (within theoretical computer science) and continue to be interested in this year. Since maybe 2015 or so, most of my research work has been in bioinformatics. If you want a laundry list of things I have done, you can see my C.V. (aka resume).
Contact
I am currently in the midst of moving from Root Hall to Technology Center. My email address will not change, and I believe my phone number should stay the same as well.
Email: jkinne@indstate.edu (also jkinne@cs.indstate.edu and jeffrey.kinne@indstate.edu all go to the same place).
Phone: office phone - 812-237-2126.
Office: within the ECET office suite, TC 301
ISU uses Teams and Zoom for virtual meetings. I am happy to meet on other platforms as well (Google meet, WebEx, Skype, etc.).
Schedule a meeting: https://cs.indstate.edu/jkinne-meeting
Note: I use a separate email account for things not related to ISU and research (e.g., things having to do with my kids' school, scouts, etc.). If you're not sure what email address to use for me, feel free to use any that you have.

Teaching
For some of my recent thoughts on teaching, see teaching thoughts. I tend to update that once a year or few.
