CV

Malvina Vamvakari is a Professor in the area of Probability-Combinatorics-Statistics and Applications at the Department of Informatics and Telematics of Harokopio University. She graduated from the Department of Mathematics of the National Kapodistrian University of Athens in 1991 and was awarded a PhD degree by the same Department in 1997. She had been a postdoctoral fellow at the Computer Engineering Department of the University of Patras and a researcher at the Institute of Computer Technology of Patras. Her research interests include asymptotic combinatorial enumeration, discrete probability distributions, stochastic analysis, random graphs, and statistical data analysis.She serves as Associate Editor of Communications in Statistics (Theory and Methods; Simulation and Computation; Case Studies, Data Analysis and Applications), and has participated in the scientific committees of numerous national and international conferences in the areas of Probability, Combinatorics, and Statistics. She has served several terms as a member of the Board of the Greek Statistical Institute.
