The United Nations declared 11 February as the International Day of Women and Girls in Science to promote and improve the access and participation of women and girls in science. This year, the Basque Center for Applied Mathematics – BCAM, is once again taking part in different initiatives carried out with the participation of researchers from the centre.
The second edition of the mathematical modelling consultancy service has come to an end after months of work.
