- sdenton4 5y agoThis was what I came into the comments to find out! I like that the faculty is 'celebrating her result,' a phrase we often use for new discoveries and theorems, rather than race placements. I got excited when I saw 'Catalan' in the original article, but, sadly, as she's in PDE research, she's merely from Catalan, not studying Catalan numbers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalan_number https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalan_number

Here's one of the main papers leading to the doctorate: https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.02605 https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.02605
- dls2016 5y agoI left the PDE group as a postdoc a few months before she joined. This even further solidifies that I wasn’t quite cut out for that level of mathematics… haha. Congrats on her win!
