Hi!

From 1st of October 2024 I will be a Royal Society University Research Fellow and Assistant professor at Warwick Mathematics Institute. I was previously a Warwick Zeeman Lecturer and Leverhulme Early Career Fellow (also at Warwick). You can contact me at josephine.evans(at)warwick.ac.uk.

Before this I was a post-doc at CEREMADE in University Paris Dauphine mentored by Jean Dolbeault and Francesco Salvarani. I was funded by Fondation Science Mathematiques de Paris.

Even longer ago, I was a PhD student at the Cambridge Centre for Analysis and DPMMS in Cambridge, UK. My supervisor was Clément Mouhot. You can find my thesis here.

My research interests are mainly in Kinetic theory though I am also very interested in probability.

I’m currently organising KinneticNet which is a network of kinetic theorists in the UK supported by a network support grant from the INI. You can find out more about it here.

Contacting me guide:

If you get as mysteriously stuck emailing lecturers as I used to here is some useful information.

  • I'm happy to be contacted either by email or teams chat. Email is easier to keep track of if you have a query that will take me more than 30 seconds to respond to.
  • Sometimes I forget about emails/teams chats so if I haven't responded in a few days feel free to email me again.
  • My preferred way for you to start and email is with Dear Jo/Dear Dr. Evans. I don't particularly mind if you say something else.
  • I can never think of subject lines here are some suggested ones: Question about measure theory/Question about theorem 12.1 in the notes/Probably typo in lecture notes/Potential R-project supervision/Potential URSS project supervision.
  • I will reply to you with whatever name you sign of with so sign your emails how you prefer to be called.
