Prof. Elisabeth Ullmann is an Associate Professor for Scientific Computing and Uncertainty Quantification at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), affiliated with the TUM School of Computation, Information, and Technology and the Department of Mathematics. She holds a PhD from TU Bergakademie Freiberg (2008) and has held academic roles including postdoctoral positions at the University of Bath, University of Hamburg, and University of Maryland. Her research focuses on developing efficient algorithms for uncertainty quantification in partial differential equations with random coefficients, Bayesian inverse problems, and rare event simulation. She is an Associate Editor for the SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing and SIAM/ASA Journal on Uncertainty Quantification , and teaches courses on numerical methods for uncertainty quantification and partial differential equations. Her work emphasizes multilevel Monte Carlo methods, stochastic Galerkin discretizations, and probabilistic numerical methods. Notable contributions include error analysis for rare event probabilities and multilevel estimators for high-dimensional problems. She collaborates internationally and maintains an active research group in Scientific Computing & Uncertainty Quantification at TUM.
