Hana Maria Dobrovolny is a Professor of Biophysics and the Department Chair at Texas Christian University. She uses mathematical models and computer simulations to study disease processes. Her research interests include the mathematical modeling of viral infectious and the modeling of cancer treatment using oncolytic viruses. Hana Maria Dobrovolny received her B.Sc. in Physics and Mathematics from the University of Winnipeg (1994–1997), her M.A. in Physics from Bryn Mawr College (1997–2000), and her Ph.D. in Physics from Duke University (2000–2008). She then began her postdoctoral fellowship at Ryerson University, where she began her research on infectious diseases.
