Hasibun Naher
Hasibun Naher is a Bangladeshi applied mathematics researcher and educator. In February 2018, she was one of five young women from developing countries to receive the OWSD-Elsevier Foundation Award.[1] Her research has included the application of mathematics to tsunamis in order to improve predictions of how they develop. She is currently associate professor of mathematics at BRAC University, Dhaka.[2] In 2019, she became a laureate of the Asian Scientist 100 by the Asian Scientist.
Biography
[edit]Dr. Hasibun Naher completed her Bachelor's of Science as well as her Master of Sciences in Mathematics from Jahangirnagar University, Savar, Bangladesh and secured first class in both. She went on to receive her PhD from the school of Mathematical Sciences, at the Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), Penang, Malaysia. She taught undergraduate courses at the School of Mathematical Sciences, USM from 2011 to 2013.[3]
Naher joined BRAC University in 2007 and is an Associate Professor in mathematics at their Department of Mathematics and Natural Sciences.[4]
