SANDRA    PALAU


I am an Associated Researcher C in the Department of Probability and Statistics, at IIMAS, UNAM.

From 2017 to 2018, I was a Postdoctoral Newton International Fellow in Pro-L@B at the University of Bath, working with Andreas Kyprianou.

From 2012 to 2016, I was a PhD student at CIMAT, under the supervision of Juan Carlos Pardo and Andreas Kyprianou.

My research interests are in probability theory. Specifically, I am interested in branching process in random environment, multi-type branching processes, self-similar Markov processes, Lévy processes, mathematical biology and interacting particles systems.

Seminars



Seminario de Probabilidad Hispanohablante

Este seminario nació durante la pandemia de COVID-19 como una iniciativa para reunir de manera online a los investigadores en Probabilidad de América Latina y España. Desde Junio 2020 a Diciembre 2021, reunimos a la comunidad hispanohablante alrededor de doctorantes, investigadores jóvenes y galardonados.

El Seminario de Probabilidad Hispanohablante se llevó a cabo todos los lunes a las 19:15 UTC (13:15 hrs México) por zoom.


Seminario de Probabilidad para estudiantes de Posgrado

El seminario esta enfocado para estudiantes de últimos semestre de maestría que quieren hacer una tesis o incluso un doctorado en probabilidad y estadística y están buscando diferentes opciones. La idea del seminario es que sean charlas accesibles cuyo principal propósito es que los estudiantes conozcan diversas áreas activas de investigación en Probabilidad.

De Septiembre de 2021 a Diciembre de 2022, el seminario se llevó a cabo cada quince días, donde un investigador o investigadora presentó una platica de 50 minutos de algún trabajo de una manera accesible. Pueden ver los videos de los participantes en la página del Seminario de Probabilidad para estudiantes de Posgrado.
