Biography
Maicon de Paiva Torres is a doctoral candidate specializing in Computational Modeling within the field of Applied Mathematics and Scientific Computing at the Polytechnic Institute of Rio de Janeiro (IPRJ-UERJ). His current research focuses on the utilization of multi-objective optimization techniques to determine the optimal administration of immunotherapy and chemotherapy drugs in cancer treatment.
He obtained his master's degree in Computational Modeling (IPRJ-UERJ, 2016-2018), during which he extensively worked on Monte Carlo methods and Bayesian inference as applied to the identification of thermal properties in convective-diffusive problems.
Prior to that, Maicon completed his undergraduate studies in Mechanical Engineering (IPRJ-UERJ, 2010-2014), where he actively participated in two projects centered around computational simulation and applied mathematics. The first project involved conducting deterministic calculations for neutron shielding, while the second project focused on utilizing single-objective optimization methods to identify damage in Euler-Bernoulli beams through vibration testing.
Maicon's professional interests lie in the areas of optimization methods, applied mathematics, and bioinformatics.
