She is a professor of computer science at the University of Calgary in Canada, where she holds a UCalgary Research Excellence Chair. She is also the editor-in-chief of Transactions on Computational Sciences.

Education and career

Gavrilova earned a master's degree in computer science in 1993 from Lomonosov State University in Moscow. She completed her Ph.D. at the University of Calgary in 1999.[3] Her doctoral dissertation, Proximity and Applications in General Metrics, was supervised by Jon Rokne.[4]

She is editor-in-chief of Transactions on Computational Science,[5] an academic journal[6] whose volumes are published as a series of edited volumes in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science book series.[5]
