Kathryn Lund

Since January 2021, I have been looking for full-time work in Zürich. I have also been intensively learning German and digging into statistics and machine learning, with an eye towards applications in personalized medicine. Feel free to contact me with inquiries or opportunities!

From September 2019 - December 2020, I was a PRIMUS-funded postdoc in the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics at Charles University working on "Scalable and Accurate Numerical Linear Algebra for Next-Generation Hardware" with Erin Carson. Prior to that, I worked with Daniel Kressner for a year in the Chair of Numerical Algorithms and High-Performance Computing at EPFL.

My doctorate was jointly awarded by Temple University and the Bergische Universität Wuppertal for my thesis A New Block Krylov Subspace Framework with Applications to Functions of Matrices Acting on Multiple Vectors. I was supervised by Daniel B. Szyld and Andreas Frommer.

I have a bachelors degree in Spanish and volunteered as an English teacher for Puentes de Salud in Philadelphia. In addition to Spanish, I speak German, French, Bulgarian, and a few other languages to varying degrees. Check out my hobbies page for my favorite language-learning resources.
