Bio:
Marijana Butorac received a BSc degree in Mathematics and Physics from the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Rijeka (supervisor: Prof. Rajka Jurdana-Šepić) in 2005. In 2012 she defended her PhD thesis at the Faculty of Science, University of Zagreb (supervisor: Prof. Mirko Primc).
Since 2012 she works as a senior assistant at the Department of Mathematics, University of Rijeka. Prior to this, she worked as an assistant at the Department of Mathematics, University of Rijeka and at the Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Art and Sciences Rijeka and before that as a teacher of mathematics and physics at the “ Istituto professionale Buje” in Buje and at the elementary school “Gornja Vežica” in Rijeka.
She is a member of “Scientific Center of Excellence for Quantum and Complex Systems – QuantiX” and “Algebraic and combinatorial methods in vertex algebra theory” Croatian Science Foundation research project.
