معرفی
Liz Stanhope is a Professor of Mathematics at Lewis & Clark College, located in Portland, Oregon. She holds affiliations with the College of Arts & Sciences, the Department of Mathematical Sciences, and contributes to the Graduate School of Education & Counseling. Her research focuses on spectral geometry, spectral graph theory, and quantitative biology education. She actively publishes in top journals like Differential Geometry and its Applications, and collaborates internationally on projects such as the Biological Science Quantitative Reasoning Exam (BioSQuaRE).
Stanhope’s academic journey includes a PhD from Dartmouth College and postdoctoral work. Her research explores how spectral properties relate to geometric structures, with notable contributions to isospectral orbifold analysis and graph-theoretic analogs. She has advised numerous undergraduate researchers, evident in co-authored papers like 'Orbigraphs: a graph-theoretic analog to Riemannian orbifolds.'
Her work bridges pure mathematics with educational innovation, reflected in projects like BioSQuaRE, which enhances quantitative reasoning in biology education. Her office is located in BoDine Hall, and she maintains an active webpage with teaching materials and research updates.
