Marcel Ortgiese

I am a postdoc in the group of Jochen Blath at the TU Berlin, see also the webpage of the probability group. From October 2009 until March 2011, I was postdoc at the IRTG SMCP based in Berlin. My PhD was supervised by Peter Mörters at the University of Bath. My research is in probability theory and in particular I am interested in stochastic processes in random environment (polymer models and parabolic Anderson model), SPDEs via duality and dynamic random graph models. A more detailed description of my research can be found here.
