Calvo-Schwarzwalder, Marc
Biosketch

Dr. Marc completed his doctoral studies at the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica and earned his PhD in Applied Mathematics from the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), where he also completed his Bachelor's and Master's degrees. After spending a short time in the consulting industry, he moved to the UAE, where he served as an Assistant Professor. During this time, Dr. Marc continued his collaboration with CRM researchers and, upon returning to Barcelona, took on a full-time research position at CRM. He later joined the Mathematics department of UPC as an Assistant Professor. His research primarily focuses on the mathematical modeling of physical and chemical processes, with a particular emphasis on environmental applications.
