Phd field of expertise

149 Views Asked by At

I'm not seeking personal advice but a field (to do a Phd in) in which you work with the following:

(1) Probability Theory in general and specifically stochastic processes (2) Measure Theory (3) Functional Analysis (4) Numerics (5) Topology (6) No physics (7) No PDE theory

So I heard that in Mathematical Statistics you can use many of the fields ((1)-(6)) above. Could anybody working in Mathematical Statistics maybe say a few words about this field? How about Financial Math or Mathematical Biology. Do you know any fields which combine the above ?

Thanks a lot !

According to my limited experience in biomedical research, researches concerning the human brain should have a good prospect in the coming decade. You may have a look at the following links:

Note that huge amount of money is / will be invested into this field. The study of human brain also involve a lot of mathematics, as I heard in some conferences. You can explore more yourself if interested.
