معرفی
Gail Wolkowicz is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at McMaster University. Her research focuses on mathematical biology, dynamical systems, and population ecology, with applications to ecology and epidemiology. She formulates and analyzes models to understand population dynamics, particularly in microbial communities and chemostat systems. Her work addresses questions such as optimizing microbial cultures for environmental processes like water purification and waste decomposition, pest control strategies, and disease eradication.
Her research areas include differential equations, dynamical systems, epidemiology, and mathematical modeling. She has contributed to studies on predator-prey interactions, delayed differential equations, and bifurcation theory. Teaching activities include courses like Discrete Dynamical Systems, Bifurcations and Stability, and Mathematical Biology at both undergraduate and graduate levels.
Her scholarly output includes over 40 publications in the last decade, focusing on chemostat models, resource competition, and impulsive systems. Notable works address self-cycling fermentation processes, predator-prey dynamics with delays, and anaerobic digestion models. Her research often integrates computational simulations and symbolic computation to explore complex biological phenomena.
