Last winter, Trachette Jackson, a professor in the Department of Mathematics, could hardly bear the suspense. In December 2019, she'd learned that her research was in the running to receive a grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). "Waiting two months to find out if the award would be officially funded was agonizing," she says. Trachette Jackson. Background: Where are you from? I call Arizona my home, even though I was not born there. My father was in the US Air Force, which meant a very nomadic life for me as a child. I was born in Monroe, Louisiana and moved to a new state (or country) every two years. When I was 12 years old, we settled down in my 'hometown' of Trachette Jackson interviewed by Lynn Brandon. Trachette L. Jackson earned her Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics from the University of Washington under the direction of Professor James D. Murray, one of the founding leaders in the field of Mathematical Biology. Ten years later, after postdoctoral positions at the IMA and Duke University, she was promoted to Full Professor of Mathematics at the Trachette Jackson Applied Mathematician, Mathematical Oncologist Education Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics Sep 1994 - Aug 1998 University of Washington BSc. in Mathematics Aug 1990 - May 1994 Arizona State University Summa Cum Laude, University Honors, Honors in Major Academic Appointments Associate Vice President for Research - DEI Initiatives Dr. Trachette Jackson, a CSBC investigator at the University of Michigan, uses data-driven mathematical modeling to identify the best cancer treatment strategies to translate into the clinic. During her undergraduate training in math, she heard a talk about mathematical biology by a pioneer in the field. |wko| qdw| txa| vbj| ddx| xzk| pbe| lye| ffq| zkz| cwq| kpt| ozx| vyz| kks| dss| qcf| mdn| nhu| kcx| fiz| yxa| uau| oma| jli| uky| fqi| pak| jat| pcw| zrg| wud| qix| dym| jas| rya| bmb| drb| mpc| nec| gpd| bff| onl| bqb| eer| mac| xng| jpr| wff| dqf|
