| BCAM has won, with its initiative MATEMATIKHARIAK, the Special Gender Mention of the fourth edition of the STEAM Euskadi Sariak Awards, in the category of ‘STEAM education initiatives promoted by socio-economic entities’. These awards are organized by the Department of Education of the Basque Government in collaboration with the Basque Innovation Agency-Innobasque, within the STEAM Euskadi Strategy. The Special Gender Mention also comes with a financial endowment of 1,000 euros that we will use to further implement our outreach initiatives. With the support of the STEAM Euskadi seal, BCAM will continue to expand and improve its program to reach an even wider audience and promote curiosity about mathematics. |

| Parga works as a PhD student at the Basque Center for Applied Mathematics (BCAM) in the field of Modelling and Simulation in Life and Materials Sciences, where he joined five years ago. His thesis, titled "Tackling the development of hormone therapy resistance in breast cancer through mathematical modelling" is under the expert guidance of Elena Akhmatskaya (Ikerbasque & BCAM) and María del Mar Vivanco Ruiz (CIC bioGUNE) |

| Researchers from the Basque centers BCAM, Achucarro Basque Center for Neuroscience and the Department of Neurosciences of the UPV/EHU; together with the University of Toronto and Krembil Research Institute, Canada, have collaborated in a pioneering study that sheds light on the molecular mechanisms underlying Alzheimer's disease. Led by Giulio Bonifazi, a PhD graduate from BCAM in December 2023, the study explores the interaction between amyloid-β (Aβ) and glutamate in the development of Alzheimer's disorder. |

| The goal of 'Pint of Science' is to introduce audiences of all ages to the scientific and technological research being carried out in their environment, in this case, the province of Bizkaia. It brought together researchers from some of the most important academic and research centers in our territory: Achucarro, Azti BC3, BCAM, BCMaterials, IIS Biobizkaia – Biocruces, Instituto Biofisika, CICbioGune, Tekniker, University of Deusto, and UPV/EHU. From BCAM, Daniela Moreno and Mikel Camarasa, both Phd students, were part of the festival. Daniela shared the talk 'Journey to the Modeling of a NanoUniverse' and Mikel shared 'Why Don't Mathematicians Get Lucky?' |

BCAM was part of BCAM organized the Spring school and workshop spectral theory, fourier analysis and PDEs
The first Spring School and Workshop "Spectral Theory, Fourier Analysis and PDEs" was celebrated at the Bizkaia Aretoa in Bilbao from May 27 to May 31, 2024. The main objective of this scientific meeting is to foster a vertical gathering between researchers at different stages of their careers, including master's students, PhD students, early postdocs, as well as leading expert in the fields of Spectral Theory, Fourier Analysis and Partial Differential Equations. BCAM hosted the regional phase and awards ceremony of the Incubator of soundings and experiments 2024, organized by the UPV/EHU in collaboration with BCAM and Eustat
Aixerrota BHI, IES Peñaflorida and KantauriBHI were the winners of this phase. BCAM participated, one more year, in the Zientzia Azoka of Elhuyar in Bilbao
Elhuyar Zientzia Azoka is a fair of projects developed by young people that allows them to experience research and development from the inside. The aim of the fair is to offer young people STEAM experiences with the involvement of the whole community. BCAM participated, in collaboration with INNOLAB Bilbao, in 'Semana de nuevos modelos de liderazgo' organized by WITH
Jone Renteria, Research Technician at BCAM explained the MATHS4SPORTS projetc in a session on 'Entrepreneurship, Technology, and Sports.' BCAM presented the services of its KTU (Knowledge Transfer Unit) and Mathematical Modeling offered by Beaz Bizkaia in an online conference
This advisory service helps SMEs and Startups in Bizkaia to identify opportunities for process improvement, design optimization, guidance on new computational tools and also for the definition of new services or products. All through the analysis and exploitation of the data that the companies are registering. BCAM Scientific Seminars were back in May with a talk of Santiago Manuela's (BCAM-Ikerbasque)
The Seminar was on "The mathematics of machine learning: empirical risk minimization and beyond" Interview with Novi Quadrianto, researcher of the Machine Learning line at BCAM, about his impact and opinion of the TANGO project
Novi Quadrianto participates in 'Behind The Scenes' series, and talks about his role and the BCAM's role in the TANGO Project. Verónica Álvarez Castro participated in lastest edition of 'Matemáticas en la vida cotidiana' talks in Bidabarrieta Kulturgunea
Youtube link X Marine Energies Conference organized by the research group in Marine Renewable Energy JRL-ORE José Antonio Lozano, Scientific Director of BCAM, participated in the X Marine Energies Conference at the School of Engineering of Bilbao. The aim of the conference was to find a common ground between the needs of Industry and #Research in this field of Offshore Renewable Energy in the Basque Country. The conference has been organized by the research group in Marine Renewable Energy JRL-ORE and has the support of TECNALIA, BCAM - Basque Center for Applied Mathematics, UPV/EHU and Euskampus Fundazioa. Luis Vega participated in the XVII Assembly of Innobasque The Basque Agency for Innovation, Innobasque, held at the Campus of Donostia - Euskadi Technology Park its XVII General Assembly, the annual reference meeting that brings together the agents of the Basque innovation ecosystem to take the pulse of the R&D&I activity in the Basque Country. |
