Necibe Tuncer is a Professor at the Department of Mathematical Sciences, Florida Atlantic University. She received her Ph.D. in Mathematics from Auburn University in 2007. After that, she worked as a John Thompson Research Assistant Professor at the University of Florida (2008–2011). She joined the Department of Mathematical Sciences, Florida Atlantic University, as an Assistant Professor (2014–2018) and became an Associate Professor (2018–2023), being a Professor since 2023. Her research expertise lies at the exciting intersection of mathematics and epidemiology, with a strong focus on developing novel mathematical methods and techniques, both analytically and computationally, to address complex challenges in the field of infectious diseases. Her expertise in mathematical epidemiology lies in developing structural and practical identifiability analyses of multi-scale infectious disease models. Over the years, she has collaborated with many researchers, resulting in numerous published articles and successful NSF and NIH grants. She is a member of the editorial board for Scientific Reports and the editorial board for the Journal of Biological Systems. https://www.math.fau.edu/people/faculty/tuncer/index.php
