Shoshana Kamin graduated from Moscow University in 1953 and earned her "candidate of science" degree from the same university in 1959,[1] under the supervision of Olga Oleinik.
[3] She and her two sons left the Soviet Union in the early 1971.
[5] In the late 1950s, she gave the first proof of the existence and uniqueness of the generalized solution of the three-dimensional Stefan problem.
[7] Later, she made important contributions to the study of the porous medium equation,[8] and to non-linear elliptic equations.
