Clara Prats Soler (Barcelona,1979) is a Spanish physicist and researcher, who has also worked as a soprano.[1] She has been recognized for her research and dissemination workes.[2][3]
Career
[edit]She was born in Catalonia, with ties to the municipality of Moyá.[4] Daughter of a biologist and a musician.[5] From the age of 17 and for three lustrums, Prats conducted children's, youth and university choirs.[6] With a soprano voice, she sang in choirs until 2020.[7]
Prats studied physics, specializing in computational modeling of infectious diseases.[8] For 10 years, he collaborated with the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute (for its acronym in Spanish, IGTP, Instituto de Investigación Germans Trias i Pujol) creating mathematical models applied to tuberculosis and other infectious diseases with Dr. Pere-Joan Cardona.[9][8]
At the time of the Covid-19 pandemic, she also became the head of the computational biology and complex systems group of the BIOCOM-SC research group at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia.[8] From that position, she contributed to the creation of mathematical models of the epidemiological dynamics of COVID-19, to its monitoring and to the dissemination and communication to society of the evolution of the pandemic.[10] She also began to teach at the School of Agroalimentary and Biosystems Engineering of Barcelona belonging to the same university center.[11]
In September 2021, she became a member of the Scientific Advisory Committee of the Covid-19 of Catalonia, led by Magda Campins Martí.[12]
Honours
[edit]In 2021, she received the Mathematics and Society award from the Ferran Sunyer i Balaguer Foundation, part of the Institute of Catalan Studies, for his work on the visibility and use of mathematical and statistical models and techniques in the pandemic.[13]
The following year, Prats, together with her research group BIOCOM-SC, was recognized with the City of Barcelona 2021 Award in the category of Experimental Sciences and Technology, granted by the Barcelona City Council.[14][15]
