Annamaria Massimini
I am a PhD student in Mathematics at the Vienna University of Technology, under the supervision of Prof. Ansgar Jüngel, in the Research Group for Analysis of Nonlinear PDEs, and at the Ecole Supérieure d'Ingénieurs Léonard de Vinci, under the supervision of Prof. Francesco Salvarani.
Starting from November, I will be a post-doc in the group of Virginie Ehrlacher at CERMICS - Ecole des Ponts ParisTech, as beneficiary of the Cofund MathInGreaterParis fellowship.
My research interests lie in the modelling, derivation, analysis and numerical approximation of cross-diffusion systems to describe biological processes and gas mixtures. In particular, I am familiar with entropy methods and finite volumes.
