معرفی
Angela Angeleska serves as a Professor in the Mathematics Department at The University of Tampa, teaching advanced courses including Modern Abstract Algebra, Differential Equations, and the full Calculus sequence from introductory to advanced levels. Her office is located in Science Wing - Plant Hall Room SC-247 at 401 W. Kennedy Blvd., Tampa.
Her academic credentials include:
- 2002: B.S. from Ss. Cyril and Methodius University, Macedonia
- 2005: M.A. from University of South Florida
- 2009: Ph.D. from University of South Florida
Professor Angeleska's research focuses on applied discrete mathematics, where she pioneers applications of graph theory, knot theory, and formal languages to natural computing systems and bio-molecular process modeling. Her recent work centers on network clustering problems with significant applications in biochemical and social network analysis, demonstrating how discrete structures can model complex biological phenomena. This interdisciplinary approach bridges theoretical mathematics with real-world biological challenges.
Her publication record (2019-2021) reveals a strong trajectory in network theory applications to biological systems, with articles appearing in premier journals like Theoretical Computer Science, Bioinformatics, and Discrete Applied Mathematics. These works consistently develop novel mathematical frameworks for analyzing protein interaction networks and network partitions, establishing her as a key contributor to computational biology through discrete mathematical lenses.
Her honors include:
- Provost’s Commendation for Outstanding Teaching (USF)
- Departmental Teaching Award (USF Mathematics)
- University of Tampa Learning Enrichment, Delo, and RISE Grants
- NSF-AWM Travel Grant and NSF/NIH Research Collaborator Grant
As an educator, Angeleska has directed numerous undergraduate research projects resulting in student presentations at regional conferences. She served as Math Club advisor and internship coordinator at UT for ten years while organizing the Mathematics Lecture Series. Her research collaborations span international institutions including Princeton University, University of Potsdam, Max Planck Institute, and BI Norwegian School of Business, forming global research teams that advance discrete mathematics applications in biological contexts.
