Joan Eileen Walsh FIMA (1932–2017) was a British mathematician, a professor of numerical analysis at the University of Manchester, and the founding chair of the Numerical Algorithms Group.[2][3]
Education[edit]
Walsh was born on 7 October 1932. She read mathematics at the University of Oxford, where she earned a bachelor's degree with first class honours in 1954. She became a teacher and assistant mistress at Howell's School, Denbigh, but left after three years to study numerical analysis at the University of Cambridge. She earned a diploma (with distinction) from Cambridge in 1958, and returned to Oxford for her doctoral studies. There, she became the first doctoral student of Leslie Fox, completing her D.Phil. in 1961.[3] She was also the first student to obtain a doctorate from the Oxford Computing Laboratory, the predecessor to the Department of Computer Science, University of Oxford.[4]

F.A. Rihan, “Delay Differential Equations with Applications to Biology”, Springer, 2021. “This book is useful for mathematicians and specialists associated with mathematical biology, mathematical modelling, life sciences, immunology, and infectious diseases will find this book useful. It bridges the gap between mathematics and biology.” https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-16-0626-7
