Anna Maria Fino is an Italian mathematician. She studies special areas of math like differential geometry, complex geometry, and Lie groups. These fields help us understand shapes, spaces, and how things change.
She is a professor of mathematics at the University of Turin in Italy. Professor Fino also helped start a science magazine called Complex Manifolds. She is the main editor of this magazine.
Becoming a Mathematician
Anna Maria Fino started her journey in mathematics at the University of Turin. In 1992, she earned her first university degree there. This degree is similar to a bachelor's degree.
Later, in 1997, she earned her Ph.D. This is a very high university degree. For her Ph.D., she wrote a special paper called a dissertation. It was about the "Geometry and topology of homogeneous spaces." This means she studied the shapes and structures of certain kinds of spaces.
Teaching and Research
After getting her Ph.D., Anna Maria Fino continued her work at the University of Turin. She worked as a researcher for several years. In 2005, she became an associate professor. This means she started teaching university students.
She worked hard and became a full professor in 2015. This is the highest teaching rank at a university.
Leading a Science Journal
Since 2014, Professor Fino has been the main editor of Complex Manifolds. This is an important job. As editor-in-chief, she decides which research papers get published in the journal.
The journal shares new discoveries in mathematics. It is an "open-access" journal. This means anyone can read the articles for free online.
