Maria Christina Mariani is a Professor and Department Chair in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP). Her interdisciplinary research bridges mathematics with applications in public health, geophysics, physics, and finance, with a focus on developing novel mathematical models for complex data analysis. Dr. Mariani earned her Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Buenos Aires in 1992, where she received an Outstanding dissertation award. She also holds an M.S. in Physics (1996) and an M.S. in Mathematics (1987), both from the University of Buenos Aires with highest honors. Her research interests span Applied Mathematics, Nonlinear partial differential equations, Stochastic differential equations, Machine Learning techniques, Mathematical Finance, Mathematical Physics, and Numerical Methods. She has developed mathematical models for medical data analysis (particularly breast cancer, heart disease, and prostate cancer), seismic and explosive data, and financial markets. Her work emphasizes the development of mathematical models to enhance understanding of medical data and extreme events in various phenomena. Dr. Mariani's recent research focuses on applying machine learning and stochastic models to complex data sets across multiple domains. Her work demonstrates consistent innovation in developing novel algorithms for medical diagnosis and prognosis, analyzing seismic data, and modeling financial markets using Levy processes, Ornstein-Uhlenbeck models, and wavelet techniques. She has mentored numerous students throughout her career, including PhD candidates, MS students, and post-doctoral researchers, demonstrating her commitment to academic development and knowledge transfer. Dr. Mariani has served as Department Chair and holds the Shigeko K. Chan Distinguished Professor title in Mathematical Sciences, reflecting her significant contributions to the field and institution.
