One to two awards are granted each year to teachers in the Faculty of Math who have “consistently demonstrated outstanding pedagogical skills and a deep commitment to our students’ education.”
PhD student Einar Gabbassov takes inspiration from image generation models to explore quantum information recovery.
In particular, his recent work on trustworthiness of AI is a major advancement that reflects a rare combination of creativity, technical ability and visionary thinking in research.
A new algorithm could drive breakthroughs in understanding cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, and other potentially fatal conditions.
Established in 1975, the award is given by the Centre for Teaching Excellence to no more than four instructors per year.
The goal of this project was to allow students to explore their creative side while researching the lives of mathematicians who may have been historically overlooked.
Congratulations to Dr. Jason Bell, professor of pure mathematics, on being named a Fellow of the Canadian Mathematical Society (CMS).
This year, 3 exceptional students have been selected as Math valedictorians, each representing the innovation, resilience and community spirit that define Waterloo.
The award, which recognizes outstanding research contributions within the Faculty of Mathematics, is presented annually to one or two early or mid-career faculty members.
Professor of computer science Gilles Brassard, at the Université de Montréal, is one of the pioneers of quantum information science. On June 17, as part of this spring’s convocation proceedings, the Faculty of Mathematics will award him a Doctor of Mathematics, honoris causa.
