A new approach based on partition theory allows the construction of modified Diophantine equations whose only integer solutions are prime numbers. Ken Ono (University of Virginia, USA) presented his results at the Joint Mathematics Colloquium ICMAT-UAM-UCM-UAM, that took place on 9 May at ICMAT, with the title "Partitions detect primes".

David Ríos Insua (ICMAT-CSIC) explores the impact of artificial intelligence in a new online series
|
|
|
|
David Ríos Insua’s research starts from complex real-world decision-making problems, which he tackles with mathematical tools from fields such as Bayesian statistics, machine learning, and risk analysis.
|
|
Artificial intelligence (AI) is redefining numerous aspects of our daily lives, from entertainment to healthcare and the workplace. This transformative potential also entails a series of risks, which David Ríos Insua, research professor in Risk Analysis and Data Science at CSIC in ICMAT, dissects in a new scientific outreach masterclass funded by the AXA Research Fund. The three-chapter series ‘Building Secure AI Futures’ is now available on the foundation’s YouTube channel.

MSCA COFUND 2025. The main objective of the MSCA COFUND 2025 call is to co-fund new or existing doctoral programmes as well as research staff recruitment programmes at national, regional or international level. Through these actions, the aim is to promote MSCA best practices, including international, intersectoral and interdisciplinary research training, and to foster transnational and sectoral mobility of researchers at all stages of their careers.
Deadline: 24/06/2025
I-LINK 2025 Call. The I-LINK programme promotes the collaboration of CSIC research groups with international research groups, without thematic restrictions and with the aim of create and consolidate highly competitive consortia of excellence for participation in international calls for R&I projects.
Deadline: 16/06/2025
CSIC Extraordinary grants for the incorporation of scientists OEP2022. Aids whose purpose is to facilitate the incorporation of open access tenured scientists corresponding to the public employment offer 2022.
Deadline: 06/06/2025
CSIC iMOVE2025. iMOVE is a call for applications for grants for short stays in R&D&I centres or companies abroad for research staff who are working on their doctoral thesis at CSIC. Stays from 1 to 3 months: covers accommodation and board and lodging.
Deadline: 05/06/2025
