Biosketch

Marta Sanz-Solé is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Barcelona since 1986 and, currently, she is the Director of the Barcelona Graduate School of Mathematics. Her scientific interests and contributions are in the field of probability and, more specifically, in stochastic analysis. Since 2015, she is associate editor of The Annals of Probability.

She has been invited by many universities and research centres abroad, as the Institute Mitagg-Leffler (Djursholm, Sweden), MSRI (Berkeley), ICERM (Brown U.), Newton Institute (UK), MFO (Germany), Université Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris), Scuola Normale Superiore (Pisa), EPFL (Switzerland), RIMS (Kyoto).

Sanz-Solé has a large experience with international scientific panels and committees. She served as President of the European Mathematical Society during the years 2011-2014, and was also member of the Abel Committee for the Abel Prize in 2016 and 2017.

In 1998, she was awarded the Narcís Monturiol Medal by Generalitat de Catalunya and, in 2011, she was elected Fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics. Since 2017, she is member of the Institute of Catalan Studies.
