Boudewijn Bosch

I am a mathematician and physicist with a background in computational implementations. During my PhD, I gained experience with stochastic processes and geometric structures in the entanglement of curves. This work has applications in the analysis of polymer and protein structures.

Work Experience

PhD Researcher in Mathematics (Computational Topology) 2021–2026
University of Groningen
  • Build and optimize a computational model in Python (and Mathematica) to characterize entangled structures (see Code).
  • Lead a seminar of six people; assign tasks and responsibilities; develop a shared “language” around a complex topic to make collaboration more productive.
  • Network at conferences, exchange perspectives, and present ideas to audiences with a broad range of backgrounds.
  • Write papers, structuring thinking in an understandable format.
Teacher 2021–2025
University of Amsterdam & University of Groningen
  • Teach bachelor’s- and master’s-level mathematics; explain complex concepts clearly and design/grade assignments.
