Cheriton School of Computer Science Professor Sepehr Assadi has been named one of three Faculty of Mathematics Research Chairs. Research chairs are conferred to recognize scholarly achievement and pre-eminence in a particular field of knowledge. In addition to the prestigious recognition, research chairs receive $50,000 in research funding and a teaching reduction of one course per year over the three years of the appointment.
“I am humbled to be joining this year’s cadre of Faculty of Mathematics Research Chairs,” Professor Assadi said. “I would like to extend congratulations to my colleagues, Sophie Spirkl from the Department of Combinatorics and Optimization and Aissa Wade from the Department of Pure Mathematics, who were also named research chairs.”
