报告人简介：

Stefan A.H. Geritz, Associate Professor of Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Helsinki, main researcher in the Biomathematics Research Group. He received his MSc degree in 1987 in Mathematics and Biology from University of Leiden (the Netherlands) and Ph.D. degree in 1998 from University of Leiden (the Netherlands) in Biomathematics.

His short-term appointments consist of visiting professor in Dipartimento di Elettronica e Informazione, Politecnic di Milano (Italy) from April-June of 2009, visiting professor in Department of Mathematics, University of Vienna (Austria) from June-July of 2007, and research scholar of International Institute of Applied System Analysis (Austria) from June-July of 1998.

Prof. Geritz's research is in Applied Mathematics (Biomathematics), particularly in ecological modeling, population dynamics and adaptive dynamics. The topics of his papers range from general (i.e., model-independent) theories in adaptive dynamics to results for specific ecological or evolutionary models.

Prof. Geritz had 39 articles published in international journals with peer review. In total these have been cited 2700 times according to the ISI Web of Knowledge. The average number of citations per paper is 70. His h-index is 19, September 2016.

As co-founder of the mathematical theory of adaptive dynamics, two of his papers (Metz et al. 1992; Geritz et al. 1998) are commonly referred to as the seminal papers of the field and have been cited over 600 and 790 times, respectively,  according to the ISI Web of Knowledge, September 2016.
