6 new people have joined the CRM in several capacities during the last two months.
In February and March we have welcomed several new people that have joined the CRM to work both at the research support team and the CRM research staff. Below you can find a short presentation of each one.
Irene Spelta
Postdoctoral Researcher
Irene is a Maria de Maeztu postdoctoral fellow working in the group of Juan Carlos Naranjo (UB-CRM). Previously, she was a postdoc at the University of Pavia funded by the Italian Institute of Mathematics (INdAM). There she worked in the group of Paola Frediani. Moreover, she spent some months as a postdoctoral researcher at IMUB. She obtained her PhD at the University of Pavia in 2020. Her research interests lie in Algebraic Geometry. In particular, she studies moduli of curves and of abelian varieties.
