Delay Differential Equations and Applications to Biology
暫譯: 延遲微分方程及其在生物學中的應用

Fathalla A. Rihan is a Professor of Mathematics at both the United Arab Emirates University, UAE, and Helwan University, Egypt. He earned his Doctor of Science (DSc) in 2018 from the National University of Uzbekistan for his work on "Features of Delay Differential Equations and Their Applications", and received his Ph.D. in 2000 from the University of Manchester, UK, with a thesis on "Numerical Treatment of Delay Differential Equations in Biosciences". His research interests span numerical analysis, mathematical biology, and the modeling of real-life phenomena involving memory effects, such as cell division, population dynamics, and infectious diseases. He is also engaged in parameter estimation, sensitivity analysis, and both qualitative and quantitative studies of delay differential equations. Professor Rihan has published extensively in high-impact journals and presented his work at over 100 international conferences. He serves on the editorial boards of several international journals, acts as a peer reviewer, and is a member of the American Mathematical Society. He has supervised numerous Ph.D. students and led multiple research projects as principal investigator. With over 30 years of teaching experience at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels, Professor Rihan is also recognized for his expertise in higher education quality assurance and accreditation. He has been consistently ranked among the world's top 2% of researchers by Stanford University (2019-2024). In 2025, Prof Rihan was awarded the Khalifa Award for Distinguished University Professor (Cycle 18) in recognition of his exceptional contributions to research and education.

Fathalla A. Rihan 是阿拉伯聯合大公國大學和埃及赫爾萬大學的數學教授。他於2018年在烏茲別克國立大學獲得科學博士學位（DSc），研究主題為「延遲微分方程的特徵及其應用」，並於2000年在英國曼徹斯特大學獲得博士學位，論文題目為「生物科學中延遲微分方程的數值處理」。他的研究興趣涵蓋數值分析、數學生物學以及涉及記憶效應的現實現象建模，如細胞分裂、人口動態和傳染病。他還參與參數估計、敏感性分析，以及延遲微分方程的定性和定量研究。Rihan 教授在高影響力的期刊上發表了大量論文，並在100多個國際會議上展示了他的研究成果。他擔任多個國際期刊的編輯委員會成員，擔任同行評審，並且是美國數學學會的成員。他指導了眾多博士生，並作為首席研究員領導多個研究項目。Rihan 教授擁有超過30年的本科和研究生教學經驗，並因其在高等教育質量保證和認證方面的專業知識而受到認可。他在2019年至2024年間被史丹佛大學持續評選為全球前2%的研究人員。2025年，Rihan 教授因其對研究和教育的卓越貢獻而獲得第18屆哈利法傑出大學教授獎。
