Fadil Santosa

Fadil Santosa is a professor of applied mathematics and statistics at Johns Hopkins University, where he is currently the Yu Wu and Chaomei Chen Department Head. ^[1] Before, he was a professor at the University of Minnesota.

Santosa is known for his work in applied mathematics^{[ according to whom? ]} and his efforts to connect academia and industry.^{[ citation needed ]} At the University of Minnesota he was director of the Minnesota Center for Industrial Mathematics, and later director of the Institute for Mathematics and its Applications (IMA) from 2008 to 2017. ^[2]

Santosa is a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society ^[3] and the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM). ^[4]

Santosa has been recognized with the 2023 SIAM Prize for Distinguished Service to the Profession. ^[5] He also received the 2023 Johns Hopkins Diversity Award. ^[6]

Santosa holds two patents: for multifocal optical device design and for symbol-based decoding of optical codes. ^[7]

Santosa's research interests include inverse problems, wave phenomena in complex media and photonic devices, and optimal design. His PhD advisor was Robert W. Carroll. ^[8] Santosa was born in Bandung, Indonesia.^{[ citation needed ]}
