HWAI-RAY TUNG

Ray is an incoming postdoc who recently earned his PhD from the Department of Mathematics at Duke in 2023. With the guidance of his advisor, Rick Durrett, he used stochastic processes and dynamical systems to work on a variety of problems in mathematical biology, including cancer, epidemic and ecological modeling. During his PhD, Ray also enjoyed working with undergraduates through teaching and summer research programs. Ray is very excited to join the mathematical biology research community and is looking forward to his time at the University of Utah.
