By Washington State University — Sleep and Performance Research Center
Dr. Victoria Booth — Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Associate Professor in the Department of Anesthesiology at the University of Michigan — will be visiting WSU Spokane for the SPRC Seminar Series. Her seminar entitled “Modeling sleep-wake regulation: Circadian and homeostatic influences on sleep behavior” will be in person in the Spokane Center for Clinical Research and Simulation room 250 and through Zoom on Thursday, Oct. 26, 12:10–1 p.m.
Dr. Victoria Booth’s research uses mathematical modeling with the goal of helping to reveal and understand the physiological mechanisms generating experimentally observed brain and neural activity. She received her BA from Smith College and continued her studies at Northwestern University in Applied Mathematics. After a postdoctoral fellowship at the National Institutes of Health, she became a faculty member with the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the New Jersey Institute of Technology before moving to the University of Michigan. At the University of Michigan, she is Associate Director for Academic Affairs for the Neuroscience Graduate Program, and Associate Chair in the Department of Mathematics.
We look forward to you joining us in person (SCCRS 205) or through Zoom!
