Jen Paulhus’ research blends ideas from geometry, algebra, and number theory, particularly using computation to explore these areas. And no, it doesn't mean that she is any good at arithmetic. She is involved in a massive online database, working to make mathematical data accessible to researchers and students with varying levels of comfort with computers. She works with students on projects from this database, as well as on projects in computation and abstract algebra. Her research has taken her all over the world, including to Chile where she recently spent 3 months as a Fulbright Scholar. When she isn't thinking about math, she likes to lift heavy weights, bake desserts, and hang out with her cats (named after mathematicians, of course).
