Dr Anna Maltsev
Royal Society University Research Fellow and Reader in Applied Probability
School of Mathematical Sciences
Queen Mary University of London
Research
random matrix theory, quantum graphs, mathematical biology, calcium signalling
Interests
My research interests span probability, mathematical physics, quantitative biology, and analysis. More specifically, I work on topics in random matrix theory, stochastic models and analytic solutions for calcium cell signalling in heart cells, spectral theory, random fermionic systems, and quantum graphs. My Ph.D. work was on spectral theory of a Schroedinger operator on the half-line.
