Denis Sabitov

Biography

Denis received his Candidate of Sciencesdegree in Applied Mathematics from Moscow State University in 2010. Prior to joining Skoltech, he worked in Schlumberger Moscow Research Center for 8 years. He started there as a part time contractor and then achieved the position of a Research Scientist. He contributed to different projects, including a project of developing a modeling program using the latest High Performance Computing technologies (MPI-multiGPU) to address the needs for large-scale seismic and acoustic modeling. Denis’ background also includes experience of working as a research associate, a chair of Mathematical Analysis sub-department, and a faculty member of Mechanics and Mathematics at Moscow State University; an engineer in Keldysh Institute of Applied Math of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and an intern in YUKOS FDP Center in Moscow.
