Multidisciplinary Mathematical Modelling

Francesc Font received his PhD in Applied Mathematics from the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya in 2014 and he is currently a Juan de la Cierva research fellow at the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica. He specialises in the mathematical modelling of transport phenomena and has worked on topics such as nanoscale heat transfer, Li-ion batteries, or cell motility. Part of his research is in collaboration with industry and he has been involved in industrial mathematics workshops throughout Europe. Tim Myers is a Senior Researcher at the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica, Adjunct Professor at U.  Politecnica de Catalunya and Adjunct Professor of Industrial Mathematics at U. Limerick. He has been involved in a wide variety of Industrial Mathematics initiatives and is currently the co-ordinator for all European Study Groups with Industry.  He is a co-author of “Optics Near Surfaces and at the Nanometer Scale” and has written over 90 journal publications on a range of applied mathematics topics. ​
