The students were able to learn about the project the group is working on, as well as have a glimpse into the life and work of scientists. They also learnt about some mathematical concepts they will reencounter in their future science studies, which both of them are looking forward to pursue.
It is the 3rd year that the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica participates in the “INNOBAT” program in which researchers from the institution host High School students for an immersive experience, offering them a training that involves the student’s approach to real learning environments linked to their choice of baccalaureate and their study and professional orientation, bearing in mind that they are still in the process of deciding on higher studies.
It is a program proposed by the school and supported by CERCA.

Dídac Gil Rams defends his doctoral thesis on the splitting of separatrices in generalized standard maps
Supervised by Inmaculada Baldomá and Pau Martín, the thesis proves the existence of chaotic dynamics in a broad family of area-preserving maps and combines classical analysis with computer-assisted proof. The defence took place on 3 July 2026 at the FME (UPC).Dídac...
How to Protect Bacteriophages Without Trapping Them? Mathematics to Improve an Alternative to Antibiotics
Bacteriophages — viruses capable of infecting and destroying bacteria — are considered one of the most promising alternatives to tackle the growing problem of antibiotic resistance. However, for these treatments to work, phages must overcome several obstacles before...
The CRM hosts nine international students for the 10th Barcelona International Youth Science Challenge
Nine secondary school students from six countries spent eight days at the CRM in July, working through four minicourses on fluid dynamics, perturbation methods, iteration and chaos, and randomness from Markov chains to machine learning, plus a session on how...
The Mathematics Behind the Three CRM Lectures at ICM 2026
Three CRM-affiliated researchers, Xavier Tolsa (plenary speaker), Xavier Cabré and Joaquim Ortega-Cerdà, lectured at the ICM 2026 in Philadelphia. Cabré surveyed the regularity of stable solutions to reaction-diffusion equations, including his optimal dimension-9...
Crossing Dimensional Frontiers: a breakthrough in the shape of stable solutions to semilinear elliptic equations
More than twenty years of efforts were required to solve a central problem in the theory of partial differential equations. A body of work developed over decades —and recognized with the Frontiers of Science Award (2023)— culminates in the resolution of an open...
Anna Florio, third CRM Chair of Excellence: billiards, friction, and the value of staying
The dynamicist Anna Florio (CEREMADE, Université Paris Dauphine-PSL) spends the summer at the CRM as the centre's third María de Maeztu Chair of Excellence. She is working with Immaculada Baldomà and Tere Martínez-Seara on billiards in the analytic setting, and on 22...
