"I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the International Mathematical Union for providing me with generous financial assistance for my visit to the University of Gottingen in Germany for a period of one month through the "Abel Visiting Scholar Program." This opportunity has allowed me to broaden my knowledge, pursue new research possibilities, and network with mathematicians from all over the globe.
The IMU's assistance has enabled me to engage in workshops, hear lectures, and collaborate with researchers at the University of Gottingen. These experiences have significantly improved my mathematical skills and knowledge and will surely boost my future research.
The IMU plays an essential role in assisting mathematicians and advancing mathematical research around the globe. Their financial assistance to researchers and students is critical, and it has contributed to the development of a solid and vibrant mathematical community worldwide. Once again, I thank the Commission for Developing Countries of the IMU for allowing me to follow my love for mathematics and contribute to advancing mathematical research."

"My visit through Abel Visiting Scholarship Program Grant was one of the productive collaborations throughout my research career, which provided me with the opportunity to meet and interact with researchers in the prestigious university like Waterloo. We are working on “Distributed delay in Brain Networks”, together with Dr Isam Al-Darabsah (former postdoc of Prof. Campbell). In particularity, we are looking at (de)synchronization in such networks and the effect of different time delays on them.
Furthermore, I met PhD students and a group of 10 Romanian visitors at the University of Waterloo during my visit. We debated on many issues I have been facing in my research, and we also discussed a few future projects. Moreover, as Prof Sue Ann Campbell is one of the main organizers of the workshop at Fields institute in Toronto, I had the chance to attend the workshop from 15th - 19th August 2022. Luckily, I met many experts in my field, followed by exchanging research ideas and made a network with few of them during the workshop."
