Corina Tarnita (note: surname misspelled as 'Tamita' in documents) was a Harvard Ph.D. student and later Junior Fellow who worked with Martin Nowak in evolutionary dynamics from 2008-2012. She exchanged sustained personal and professional correspondence with Epstein, received funding assistance for visa applications and facilitated wire transfers totaling $15,000 to Romanian women for what she believed was academic support.
Tarnita appears in 80 documents primarily through direct email correspondence with Epstein spanning 2008-2012, including birthday greetings, research discussions, travel references, and wire transfer arrangements. Key emails show her facilitating two wire transfers ($10,000 and $5,000) to Romanian women in April 2009, which Epstein framed as anonymous donations to 'support other early-career women in mathematics.' She also coordinated meetings through Nowak's office, discussed academic work (including the landmark 2010 Nature paper with E.O. Wilson on eusociality), and sent personal messages expressing gratitude and affection. Many mentions are routine scheduling emails or group distribution lists for Martin Nowak's Program for Evolutionary Dynamics seminars, but the direct correspondence reveals a sustained relationship beyond purely professional interaction.
Key Highlights
- •Facilitated wire transfers totaling $15,000 to two Romanian women in April 2009, providing bank account details to Epstein who claimed to be supporting early-career women in mathematics anonymously
- •Maintained sustained email correspondence from 2008-2012 including personal messages ('it makes me so happy to see you... it's like a surge'), birthday greetings, and thank-you notes
- •Worked in Martin Nowak's office at Harvard's Program for Evolutionary Dynamics, co-authored the influential 2010 Nature paper on evolution of eusociality with Nowak and E.O. Wilson
- •Received assistance from Epstein with visa applications and thanked him for his support
- •Now a Princeton professor of ecology and evolutionary biology who has stated publicly: 'I wish I had never known him'
