Please join us in congratulating Andrea Stine on being awarded the CNAS Scholarship Inclusive Excellence Travel Fund Award! The Inclusive Excellence Travel Fund will be awarded to underrepresented graduate students in a STEM field of study who have the opportunity to meaningfully participate in an academic conference (in person or virtual) and are making acceptable...
The Mathematics Department proudly announces that Professor Weitao Chen is the winner of the National Science Foundation CAREER Award on Multiscale Model for Cell Morphogenesis and Tissue Development in Plant Leaves. The proposed study will improve our understanding about general mechanisms involved in cell morphogenesis. Epidermal cells in plant leaves, especially pavement cells (PCs), exhibit...
The Mathematics Department proudly announces that Professor Brian Collier is the winner of the National Science Foundation CAREER Award on Higgs bundles and Anosov representations. This project focuses on the mathematical study of curved surfaces by connecting algebraic objects to them and thereby generalizing the scope of their application. One of the main notions used...

Dr. David Rush Shared Memories of David Rush To Add a Memory of Dave to This Page, Click Here "Dave did an outstanding job mentoring graduate students, VAPs and other mathematicians. I would say that Dave would modestly say it was just something he did." - Al Stralka "We learned that Professor Emeritus Dave Rush...
This award celebrates UCR faculty who have demonstrated an outstanding and long history of mentorship of graduate students. All UCR ladder-rank faculty members are eligible for the award.In 2019-2020, Dr. John Baez of Mathematics is selected to be one of the two awardees. To get to know Dr. John Baez, please visit his website: http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/
Network models are used to construct operads for modeling and designing complex networks. Many common types of networks can be modeled with simple graphs with weighted edges. While there are models to deal with the networks with commutative operations, graduate student Joe Moeller recently published “Noncommutative Network Models” in “Mathematical Structures in Computer Science”...
Several faculty members, postdoctoral associates and graduate students in the Department of Mathematics are members of the UC Riverside Interdisciplinary Center for Quantitative Modeling in Biology ( ICQMB). The main long-term goal of the ICQMB is to develop comprehensive predictive quantitative models of complex biological systems. All projects at the Center combine quantitative experiments, novel...
