CV of Alexandre L. Madureira
Brief Summary: I'm a senior researcher at
Laboratório Nacional de Computação
Científica-LNCC, a research lab in Brazil. I also work at the Escola Brasileira de Economia e Finanças-EPGE at Fundação Getúlio Vargas-FGV, the top Brazilian think tank. I recently took part in the ICERM two month program Numerical PDEs: Analysis, Algorithms, and Data Challenges (thanks, NSF). I also spent a Sabbatical year at The Division of Applied Mathematics, at Brown University, during the academic year 2015-2016.
I served as the head of the scientific committee of the CMAC-SE (2015), and I'm a member of the scientific committee of the ENAMA - both are important Brazilian meetings on pure and applied mathematics. Since 2012 I am serving at the editorial board of the International Journal of Computer Mathematics, and also at TEMA - Tendências em Matemática Aplicada e Computacional, a journal of main Brazilian society in applied mathematics - SBMAC. I was editor (Chief Editor 2015-2019; Associate Editor 2013-2015) for the Notas em Matemática Aplicada, a book series published by the SBMAC. In 2010 and 2012 I was the main editor of the proceedings of the CNMAC, the main Brazilian meeting in computational and applied mathematics. Such meeting gather around 600 people from all over the country, and around 500 papers are submitted for publication in a single year.
I was a "Pesquisador do CNPq" (2005-2017, 2019-2021). In 2009 I received a prestigious three year FAPERJ grant "Rio de Janeiro young researcher," and I take the opportunity to acknowledge the long term support from the funding agencies CNPq and FAPERJ.
In 2008 I took part in
the New Directions
ShortCourse: Mathematical Neuroscience, sponsored by
the IMA, which I gratefully
acknowledge.
I was quite happy to be invited
to deliver short courses at two important Brazilian conferences, the ENAMA II - National Conference on mathematical
Analysis and Applications (2008), and the 62o. SBA - Seminário brasileiro
de Análise (2005). In both I talked about numerical discretization for
multiscale problems. I thank the organizers for the kind invitations. In 2004 I was also invited to become a
reviewer for the
Mathematical Reviews of
the American Mathematical
Society-AMS. I was
very pleased that I received an award from Elsevier-SIAM to attend
the 50th SIAM Anniversary and
Annual Meeting in 2002. This grant has been awarded to only five people
within the "outreach" countries.
I completed my Ph.D. at the
PennState University, Department of
Mathematics. During my Ph.D., I worked under the supervision
of Douglas Arnold, in the
analysis of dimension reduction techniques. Then I took a NSF-Postdoc position at
the Mathematical Science Research
Institute-MSRI, where I took part at
the
workshop
Elastic Shells: Modeling, Analysis and Numerics. That was just before I
held another postdoc position at LNCC.
In 2002 I was offered a permanent position.
From 2009-2017, I was the head of the LNCC Library's Comittee. I also served two,
nonconsecutive, two year terms as the chair of
the Department
of Applied and Computational Mathematics, (2003-2004 and 2009-2011). I
was the vice-chair from 2007-2009.
From 1999-2001, Frédéric
Valentin and I took care of the
Applied Mathematics Department
homepage at LNCC. We also managed
the seminars
of the
institute up to 2002.

intranet CV. Both are in Portuguese.
