Several of her most notable publications include her work on establishing mathematical and compartmental models to describe and analyze biological and signaling pathways associated to different diseases. She also applies mathematical and computational models to study epidemic spreading of diseases and health communication dynamics. Her recent works apply mathematics to study and discover the patterns in the topological structures of different networks/graphs.
Dr. Angelyn R. Lao joined DLSU after the completion of her Doctorate degree in Systems Biology at the University of Rostock (Germany). She obtained her BS and MS degree in Mathematics at De La Salle University. She held two Professorial Chairs in Mathematics namely the Br. C. John Lynan FSC Professorial Chair in Mathematics and the Br. Albinus Peter FSC Professorial Chair in Mathematics. Several of her most notable publications include her work on establishing mathematical and compartmental models to describe and analyze biological and signaling pathways associated to different diseases. She also applies mathematical and computational models to study epidemic spreading of diseases and communication dynamics. Her recent works apply mathematics to study and discover the patterns in the topological structures of different networks/graphs.
