A staff of Zakho University had the valuable opportunity to engage in a collaborative partnership with the mathematical faculty at Braunschweig University.

During my six-month tenure as a guest researcher at Braunschweig University in Germany, I had the opportunity to engage in both research and teaching, creating a rich and rewarding academic experience. My primary focus was on the development of a research paper centered on mathematical modeling of problems related to the Human Papillomavirus (HPV). This work aimed to provide a deeper understanding of the dynamics of HPV transmission and control through mathematical frameworks, which could be instrumental in informing public health strategies. By leveraging differential equations and advanced mathematical tools, I was able to construct models that captured various aspects of HPV spread, vaccination impacts, and potential intervention outcomes. The results of this research are expected to make a significant contribution to the field of mathematical epidemiology, particularly in the context of viral infections.

In addition to my research activities, I was also involved in teaching two key subjects: Calculus and Differential Equations. This teaching experience not only reinforced my understanding of the subjects but also provided an opportunity to mentor and inspire students in their mathematical journeys.

Overall, my time at Braunschweig University was intellectually stimulating. It allowed me to contribute to academic research and teaching while fostering international academic collaboration.
