Hayriye Gulbudak

Bio

Dr. Hayriye Gulbudak received her PhD in Mathematics in 2014 from University of Florida. She was a postdoctoral researcher at the School of Biological Sciences and Mathematics, Georgia Institute of Technology (2014-2016), and the School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences, Arizona State University (2016-2017). She is currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Louisiana, Lafayette. Dr. Gulbudak's research lies at the interface of Dynamical Systems, Differential Equations, Numerical Analysis, and their application to modeling biological systems. In particular, she studies the ecology/ evolution of pathogen-host systems using structured population models, bifurcation theory, and computational methods. Her research has been supported by the Simons Foundation and National Science Foundation, including a recent NSF RAPID award to study epidemiological and phylogenetic models of COVID-19.
