Education and career
editSchnass was born in Klosterneuburg.[1] She earned a master's degree in mathematics at the University of Vienna in 2004, with a thesis surveying Gabor multipliers supervised by Hans Georg Feichtinger.[4] She completed her Ph.D. in communication and information sciences at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne in 2009. Her dissertation was Sparsity & Dictionaries – Algorithms & Design, and her doctoral advisor was Pierre Vandergheynst.[4][5]
After postdoctoral research at the Johann Radon Institute for Computational and Applied Mathematics of the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Linz[4] (chosen over Stanford University to stay close to her family)[6] and as an Erwin Schrödinger Research Fellow at the University of Sassari and University of Innsbruck, she joined the Innsbruck Department of Mathematics as an assistant professor in 2016.[4]
