In May 2015 she was appointed chair of the scientific Committee of the Graduate School of Mathematics (BGSMath).[2] and from May 2018 until October 2019, she held the position of Director.

Research

Her research interests are in stochastic analysis, in particular stochastic differential and partial differential equations. She has published more than 90 scientific articles [3] [4] and a monograph on Malliavin calculus and applications to SPDEs.[5]

Service

Sanz-Solé served in the Executive Committee of the European Mathematical Society in 1997-2004. She was elected President in 2010,[6] and held the post from January 2011 to December 2014.[7] She is a member of several international committees overseeing the mathematical sciences. In particular, the Board of Directors of the Institut Henri Poincaré, the FSMP (Fondation Sciences Mathématiques de Paris), the committee for research and education of the École Polytechnique, and the Scientific Committee of CIRM (Centre des Rencontres Mathématiques, Luminy, France). In the past years, she served in the Scientific Council of the Banach Center [8] (2010-2014), the Fellows Committee of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (2012-2014), and the Committee of Special Lectures (2008-2010).[9] She was a member of the Board of Directors of the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica (Bellaterra, Barcelona) for a three-year period, starting April 2007.[10] In June 2015, she was appointed member of the Abel Committee for the Abel Prize 2016, 2017.[11]

Recognition

In 1998 she was awarded with Narcis Monturiol Medal of Scientific and Technological Excellence [12] by the Generalitat of Catalonia. In 2011 she was elected Fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics.[13][14] In november 2016, she was elected numerary member of the Institute of Catalan Studies. [15].In 2017 she was awarded the Real Sociedad Matemática Española Medal [16] for her scientific contributions and relevant international positions and service. The same year, she was elected honorary fellow of the Catalan College of Economists .[17] In January 2019, she became numerary member of the Royal Academy of Sciences and Arts of Barcelona.[18]
