Hello! I am an associate professor at the University of Zagreb, working in extremal and probabilistic combinatorics. I completed my PhD at ETH Zurich in 2018 under the supervision of Benny Sudakov. Between 2018 and 2023 I was a research fellow at Monash University and at the University of Zagreb (supported by the EU Horizon 2020 Widening Fellowship).
Topics I have recently worked on include random graphs (thresholds and detection problems), asymptotic enumeration, extremal problems for (hyper)graphs, graph Ramsey theory, arithmetic Ramsey theory. I love hearing about new problems and interesting research, so feel free to contact me on nina.kamcev at math.hr .
Among my `softer' academic interests are mentoring and leadership in research, sustainability, including women and minority groups, returning to Croatia, education vs. training, why and how fundamental science is worth pursuing. I would particularly like to participate in improving the quality of teaching and research in Zagreb, and opening new opportunities for students, but I am not claiming to have any authority there. I'd be very happy to exchange on any of those topics!
