Giovanna Guidoboni, PhD, is an applied mathematician with expertise in mathematical and computational modeling of complex fluid flows arising in engineering and biomedical applications. Dr. Guidoboni has promoted the development of interdisciplinary approaches in physiology and ophthalmology at the international level. She co-founded a new peer-reviewed scientific journal titled “Journal for Modeling in Ophthalmology,? for which she currently serves as co-Chief Editor and Managing Editor, and a new series of interdisciplinary congresses and doctoral courses creating a forum where ophthalmologists, physiologists, mathematicians, engineers, physicists, and biologists can discuss new ideas on how to address outstanding challenges in ophthalmology.
