Natasha Jonoska is a Distinguished University Professor at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at University of South Florida in Tampa, Florida. Her research interests are in theoretical and computational models of molecular self-assembly and molecular biology. She has had extensive research collaborations with experimentalists in molecular biology and structural DNA nano technology. She holds a PhD degree in Mathematical Sciences from the State University of New York in Binghamton NY, USA and since 2014 she is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. For ten years she served as a Chair of the annual DNA Computing and Molecular Programming conference and co-chaired the annual Unconventional Computing and Natural Computing conference. Her work on three-dimensional DNA self-assembly as computing models was awarded with a Rozenberg Tulip Award in DNA Computing and Molecular Programming by the International Society for Nanoscale Science and Computing. She has been a senior member of the Southeast Center for Mathematics and Biology housed in Georgia Tech since 2018 and in 2021 the Florida section of Mathematical Association of America awarded her with the MAA award for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics. Her work has been/is supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF), National Institute of Health (NIH), the W.M. Keck Foundation and for 2022 she was a Simons Fellow in Mathematics. In 2022 she was also elected as a foreign member at the Macedonian Academy of Arts and Sciences.
