Jeremy Quastel
Jeremy Daniel Quastel ,  is a Canadian mathematician specializing in probability theory, stochastic processes, partial differential equations. He is currently head of the mathematics department at the University of Toronto. He grew up in Vancouver, British Columbia, and now lives in Toronto, Ontario. Career
Quastel earned his PhD at Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences at New York University in 1990; the advisory was S. R. Srinivasa Varadhan. He was a postdoctoral student at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute in Berkeley, then a faculty member at University of California, Davis for the next six years; returned to Canada in 1998. Research
Jeremy Quastel is recognized as one of the top probabilists in the world in the fields of hydrodynamic theory, stochastic partial differential equations, and integrable probability. In particular, his research is on the large scale behaviour of interacting particle systems and stochastic partial differential equations. Awards, distinctions, and recognitions
