Rose Lopez

I am a Visiting Assistant Professor of Mathematics at Bilkent University.

I recieved my PhD from the University of California, Berkeley, advised by Martin Olsson. My thesis was titled Picard Groups and Brauer Groups of Certain Stacks.

Read my Research Statement and CV.

My interests are in algebraic geometry: curves, moduli spaces, and stacks.

I completed my Bachelor's degree in mathematics at Arizona State University.
