Biography
Maria Alegria Gutierrez Guillen
- Alumni
- Spain
- 2021 PhD Applied Mathematics & Theoretical Physics
- King's College
I studied Mathematics at the University of Cambridge, finishing my Bachelor's in 2020 and my Master's (Part III Maths) in 2021. I specialised in theoretical physics, but the COVID-19 pandemic taught me that I wanted my research to have a positive impact. During my PhD (2021-2025), I used mathematical models to study how vaccination campaigns during epidemics potentially shape pathogen evolution. Since October 2025, I have been a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Georgia, studying the ecology and evolution of influenza viruses.
