  • Lenka Přibylová

    is is an active researcher in nonlinear dynamics and leads the team nonlinear dynamics. She gives lectures on bifurcation theory and chaos, and applied nonlinear dynamics in interdisciplinary fields. She is the head of the Analytical Group of the NIZP, a member of the ESMTB, and a member the scientific committee of BISOP. She participated in the project for Monitoring, Analysis, and Management of Epidemic Situations with The Institute of ÚZIS and the European Covid-19 forecast hub under ECDC. She has successfully collaborated with researchers from abroad, recent research with Veronika Eclerová on synchronization in superconducting was published with André Botha, University of South Africa. She published in international journals. She works as supervisor for postdoc and doctoral positions, as well as many Master and Bachelor students. Her postdoc achieved EUROPE HORIZON MSCA PF grant. She is very dedicated to popularization and educational activities for the broad public.


  • Veronika Eclerová

    is a Lecturer at the Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics at Masaryk University and an active researcher in nonlinear dynamics. She defended her PhD in 2020 under the supervision of Lenka Přibylová. She participated in the project Monitoring, Analysis, and Management of Epidemic Situations with ÚZIS in cooperation with dr. L. Přibylová. During autumn 2021 she was on internship at the University of Twente under the supervision of prof. H. Meijer, who has almost 20 years long experience in dynamical modelling in neuroscience. She also cooperates with prof. A. E. Botha on the application of dynamical modelling, especially synchronizations, in the field of physics. Before her career in academia, she has 9-years of work experience as a consultant, a data analyst and a programmer in the private sector. She is dedicated to popularization activities for the broad public (such as Science festival or Researchers’ night).


  • Deeptajyoti Sen

    is an active researcher in the interdisciplinary area of applied mathematics and works as a postdoctoral fellow at the Department of Mathematics & Statistics, Masaryk University. Particularly, his research area focus on population dynamics, epidemiology, synchronization of coupled systems, pattern formation, and non-linear dynamics. He has recently been awarded the Marie-Curie grant for the postdoctoral position. His current project is "Models with cross interactions between partial dynamical processes aiming to understand significant or abrupt dynamic changes." Also, he has successfully collaborated with researchers from abroad and published his works in reputed international journals, including Scientific reports, Journal of Mathematical Biology, Internatioanl Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos.


  • Jakub Záthurecký

    is a doctoral student at Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Masaryk University under the supervision of Lenka Přibylová. During his bachelor’s and master’s degree, he studied algebra and category theory. Now, he is interested in applications of pure mathematics to investigation of differential equations which can be used to describe real-world phenomena such as models in neuroscience.


  • Jan Ševčík

    Jan Ševčík is a doctoral student at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Masaryk University. In 2021, he successfully defended his Master's thesis on the synchronization in dynamical systems, which is also closely related to the topic of his doctoral dissertation. Currently, he is interested in studying the emergence of very high-frequency and ultra-fast oscillations in EEG signals of patients with focal epilepsy. He is also devoted to popularization of mathematics to a broad public (Science festival or Researchers’ Night).


  • Štěpán Zapadlo

    Štěpán Zapadlo is a Master's student at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Masaryk University. His successfully defended Bachelor's thesis focused on data-driven techniques for the discovery of dynamical systems from data, mainly applying those procedures to neuroscience models. Now, he is interested in machine-learning algorithms, mathematical optimization and modeling under the supervision of Assoc. Prof. Lenka Přibylová.
