Tatiana Alekseyevskaya (Gelfand) graduated from the Department of Cybernetics and Applied Mathematics at Kiev State University in Ukraine. She then received her PhD in Mathematics in Moscow for her research on systems of quasi-linear equations and related geometrical constructions describing isotachophoresis, a process used in biological studies of protein molecules. She has extensive experience teaching mathematics to undergraduate students in both Russia and the United States, and worked closely with Israel Gelfand at Rutgers University, preparing assignments to be used in the GCPM.
