Marie Curie ITN CAFE: Climate advanced forecasting of sub-seasonal
extremes March 2019 – March 2023,
H2020-813844 Web page: http://www.cafes2se-itn.eu/ Description: Forecasting climatic
extreme events on the sub-seasonal time scale (from 10 days to about 3
months) is very challenging because of the poor understanding of the
phenomena that may increase predictability in this time scale. The goal of
the CAFE project was to improve the sub-seasonal predictability of extreme
events by training of 12 PhD students in a wide range of interdisciplinary
topics including climate science, complex systems and data analysis.

Complex dynamical systems and advanced data analysis tools 2019
- 2021 Funding: Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y
Universidades, Spain, PGC2018-099443-B-I00 Description: The aim of this project was to improve the understanding
of nonlinear phenomena in complex systems by the use of various data analysis
tools, with the long-term goal of exploiting nonlinear phenomena for
applications. The research involved experiments, simulations and data
analysis.

BE-OPTICAL: Advanced biomedical imaging and data analysis 2015-2019, H2020-675512 Web page: http://beoptical.eu/ Coordinator: C. Masoller Partners: Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (Spain); Georg August
University (Germany); Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization
(Germany); University of St. Andrews (UK); Institut de Microcirugia Ocular
(Spain); Centre de Nanosciences et de Nanotechnologies (France); Nicolaus
Copernicus University (Poland); University of Glasgow (UK); PicoQuant GmBH
(Germany). Description: Biomedical imaging is a research field that is producing
ground breaking scientific discoveries that improve our life quality, and
have a huge economic impact. To advance this field, is crucial to invest in
the new generation of researchers. BE-OPTICAL provided top-level training to
14 PhD students, in a wide range of imaging technologies and signal
processing tools. BE-OPTICAL brought together an interdisciplinary team of
physicists, engineers and medical doctors, with complementary expertise. BE-OPTICAL was featured in the Success
Stories web page of the European Comission (2017). BE-OPTICAL was featured in national and local
newspapers (2016): La Vanguardia, El Periodico, Diario de Terrassa

Complex physical and biophysical systems: towards a comprehensive view
of their dynamics and fluctuations 2016–2018 Funding:
Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad, Spain, FIS2015-66503-C3-2-P. Partners:
Universitat Pompeu Fabra (coordinator); Universitat de Barcelona; Universitat
Politecnica de Catalunya. Description: This project studied
a wide range of stochastic and complex systems that exhibit nonlinear
phenomena, such as excitability or extreme fluctuations.
Workshop on
Recent Advances on Stochastic and Nonlinear Dynamics of Complex Systems,
organized at the end of the project, in honor of Prof. Carme Torrent
(Terrassa, Barcelona, Spain, February 4, 2019).

students and 3 postdocs in the interdisciplinary set of skills required to
undertake a successful career in physics and geosciences with expertise in
climatology, networks and complex systems. The results of the project were published in the European Commission
web page (Oct. 2016) and are contained in the book “Networks in Climate”,
published by Cambridge University Press, 2019.
