Frank Trujillo joins us as a Postdoctoral Researcher under the supervision of Marcel Guardia. Frank earned his Ph.D. in Mathematics at Université Paris Cité in France in 2020, after completing his M.Sc. at IMPA in Brazil and his B.Sc. at the National University of Colombia. Before joining the CRM, Frank worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Zurich. His research primarily focuses on Dynamical Systems.
Marc Calvo, also a Postdoctoral Researcher, returns to CRM under the guidance of Tim Myers. Marc completed his Ph.D. at CRM in 2019, working on non-classical heat transfer mechanisms in situations involving short length and/or time scales. After his Ph.D., Marc worked in consulting for an IT company, before moving to the UAE to start a position as an Assistant Professor in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. During the three years he spent there, he focused on climate change-related topics, concentrating mostly on heat and mass transfer. He is now starting a postdoctoral position in the Industrial Mathematics group led by Tim Myers, mainly working on the description of adsorption processes.
Fernando Gastón joins the Knowledge Transfer Unit (KTU) at CRM as a Research Technician, under the supervision of David Romero. Fernando graduated with a bachelor’s degree in data science and engineering from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC) in 2022, where he developed a keen interest in image processing and computer vision. He then pursued a master’s in mathematics at UPC (MAMME), where he developed an interest in dynamical systems and mathematical modelling in general.
Lastly, Marcel Morillas is the other new member of the KTU. Marcel graduated in Physics (BSc) at the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB), then studied an M.Sc. Degree in Photonics at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC), undertook an internship at the Institut für Physik at Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, and finally moved to the Knowledge Transfer Unit at the CRM.

BARCCSYN 2026 gathers Barcelona’s computational neuroscience community at the IEC
The fourteenth BARCCSYN meeting brought 117 researchers to the Institut d'Estudis Catalans on 28 and 29 May 2026 for two days of computational, cognitive and systems neuroscience. Organised by the CRM with the relevant section of the Catalan societies of biology and...
The Fully Nonlinear Thin Obstacle Problem Attains Optimal Regularity
Obstacle problems are a fundamental class of questions in the analysis of partial differential equations. They describe situations in which a quantity can evolve freely, but is subject to a restriction that prevents it from crossing a certain barrier. One intuitive...
Four CRM-affiliated mathematicians in the 2026 ranking of women researchers in Spain
Tere M-Seara, Eva Miranda, Núria Fagella and Marta Mazzocco appear in the April 2026 edition of the Ranking de mujeres investigadoras españolas y en España.Four mathematicians affiliated with the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica (CRM) appear in the latest edition of the...
Three CRM researchers take mathematics to the bars of Sabadell
On 20 May, three researchers from the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica spent the evening at two bars in Sabadell, explaining their work to anyone who turned up for a drink. They were taking part in Pint of Science Sabadell 2026, the local edition of an international...
An introductory course to the Boltzmann equation: from microscopic dynamics to macroscopic order
Between April 28 and May 14, 2026, the Faculty of Mathematics at the Universitat de Barcelona hosted the BGSMath course An introductory course to the Boltzmann equation. Over six sessions, the course brought together students and researchers interested in one of the...
What memory has to balance: Representational drift, network freezing, and the mechanisms that hold neural circuits in between
Two recent papers from the Computational and Mathematical Neuroscience group at CRM ask what makes neural circuits drift in the first place, and what keeps them from collapsing under their own learning rules. One, published in PNAS, traces representational drift in...
