Math SOMMa Junior Meeting, from 2 to 4 October in Barcelona
The organising committee of the meeting together with Javier Aramayona, director of the ICMAT, and Carme Cascante, director of the CRM.
The Math SOMMa Junior Meeting will be held at the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica (CRM, Barcelona) from 2 to 4 October. This is a forum dedicated to researchers in the early stages of their careers, both predoctoral and postdoctoral, promoted by the mathematics research institutions recognised with the Severo Ochoa and María de Maeztu awards: the Institute of Mathematical Sciences (ICMAT), the Basque Center for Applied Mathematics (BCAM), the Institute of Mathematics of the University of Granada (IMAG), the International Centre for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE) and the CRM.
The programme includes five plenary sessions given by scientists from these institutions. On the part of the ICMAT, José Manuel Conde will give the lecture ‘Schur-type multipliers on Schatten-von Neumann classes as singular integral operators’ on 4 October at 9:30 am. In addition, there will be a wide range of papers on various current research topics and a poster session. In addition, there will be a series of complementary activities. The main objective of the meeting is to ‘foster networking and collaboration’ between young researchers from the mathematics research institutions that form part of the Alliance of Severo Ochoa and María de Maeztu Centres (SOMMa).
The Organising Committee is made up of the following people:
Javier de la Bodega | BCAM
Alex Ferrer | CIMNE
María Ángeles García Ferrero | ICMAT-CSIC
Roser Homs | CRM
Anna Jové | University of Barcelona (UB)
Tomás Sanz Perela | UB
Niccolò Tassi | IMAG
Four consecutive awards
In 2024 the ICMAT has been accredited, for the fourth consecutive time, as a ‘Severo Ochoa’ Centre of Excellence by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities, through the State Research Agency (AEI). Achieving this distinction once again ‘represents a tremendous recognition of the scientific work carried out by the Institute since its creation in 2007’, commented Javier Aramayona, director of the ICMAT.
In Spain as a whole, only two research centres have won four consecutive awards – the ICMAT and the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB) – which means that they have received Severo Ochoa funding uninterruptedly since the creation of this programme in 2011.
