Victor Matveev

Victor Matveev is a Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT). His research focuses on biophysical modeling of calcium-dependent processes in cellular systems, particularly presynaptic calcium signaling and synaptic plasticity. He has led multiple NSF-funded projects exploring calcium dynamics, including studies on cell calcium spatiotemporal dynamics and mechanisms of synaptic facilitation.

Key research areas include calcium nanodomains, synaptic vesicle fusion mechanisms, and mathematical approaches to modeling neural systems. His work bridges applied mathematics, neuroscience, and biophysics, with applications in understanding cellular communication pathways.

Recent projects include the 2022 FACM conference on mathematical biology and a 2015 NSF grant studying cell calcium dynamics. He collaborates with researchers in computational neuroscience, as evidenced by contributions to the Encyclopedia of Computational Neuroscience (2022).

Grants and funding history spans over two decades, with notable projects on presynaptic calcium dynamics (2004-2008), spatiotemporal calcium dynamics (2015-2018), and applied mathematics conferences (2022-2023). His research outputs combine theoretical modeling with experimental insights, yielding 39 publications and over 1,100 citations.
