Catherine Doléans-Dade (24 January 1942 – 19 September 2004) was a French American mathematician. She made significant contributions to the calculus of martingales, including a general change of variables formula, a theorem on stochastic differential equations, and exponential processes of semimartingales.[1]

After earning her doctorate from the University of Strasbourg in 1970, she became a professor in the Mathematics Department of the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign. She died of cancer in 2004.[2]
