News and Announcements

Joshua Petrack, Ph.D. student in Applied Mathematics, has won the Best Student/Postdoc Poster Award at DNA31 in Lyon, France! His work, co-authored with Professor David Doty, introduces the first exact algorithm for simulating chemical reaction networks in sublinear time per reaction—a major leap in molecular programming.

Lauren Mossman, Ph.D. student in Applied Mathematics, has been awarded the prestigious Simons Dissertation Fellowship for her groundbreaking research on ecosystem dynamics and species interactions. Her innovative modeling work offers new insights into habitat change, resilience, and ecological management.

After five years of development, UC Davis professor Matthias Köppe has reengineered the open-source math software SageMath—ushering in a modular future with the release of Passagemath 10.5.29.

We are excited to add Prof. Dogyoon Song of the Department of Statistics as the newest member of GGAM! Some of Prof. Song's current research topics include optimization theory, high-dimensional statistics, deep learning theory, and causal inference.

We are excited to add Prof. Caleb Stanford of the Department of Computer Science as the newest member of GGAM! Some of Prof. Stanford's interests include Programming language theory and formal methods in computer science; applied mathematical logic; theoretical computer science.

We are excited to add Prof. Andrés Carvajal of the Department of Economics as the newest member of GGAM! Some of Prof. Carvajal's interests include pure economic theory, in particular general equilibrium theory. This field requires the application of careful mathematics to develop insight about the operation of markets.

Congratulations to Prof. Alexander Aue and Prof. Raissa D'Souza for being elected as AAAS fellows!

Join us in celebrating Prof. Hastings’ 2024/25 UCD Emeriti/Emeritae Distinguished Emeritus Award!
