IFISC Poster Party 2021: winners list
April 6, 2021
The IFISC Poster Party is an annual activity where PhD students and postdoctoral researchers of IFISC present their research in a poster format. This year, due to health restrictions for the Covid-19 pandemic, the Poster Party was online. To replace the explanations of the authors themselves, each of the participants prepared a short video explaining the conclusions of the study and allowed anyone interested to learn first-hand about the latest research by young IFISC researchers. As usual at this event, IFISC staff were able to vote for their favourite poster. Here is the full list of winners, separated by line of research:
Transport and Information in Quantum Systems:
- 1st: Dynamical phase transitions in quantum reservoir computing - Rodrigo Martínez-Peña
- 2nd: Kink states scattering in bilayer graphene - Nassima Benchtaber
Nonlinear Photonics:
- 1st:Reservoir computing to recover optical communication signals - Irene Estébanez
- 2nd: Time-delay reservoir computing with silicon microring resonator - Giovanni Donati
Nonlinear dynamics in fluids:
- 1st: Detection and tracking of atmospheric blocks: a Lagrangian flow network approach - Noémie Ehstand
- 2nd: Sinking microplastics in the water column: simulations in the Mediterranean Sea - Rebeca de la Fuente
Biocomplexity:
- 1st: Eigenvector centrality predicts survival in positive-interactions ecosystems - Violeta Calleja-Solanas
- 2nd: Is it me or is the world moving around me? - Javier Galván
Dynamics and Collective Phenomena in Social and Socio-technical Systems:
- 1st: Frequency fluctuations and stability of power grids with a large renewable penetration ratio - María Martínez-Barbeito
- 2nd: Post mortem: looking for traces of the Black Death, from vexillology to McDonald's - Adrián García
In addition, this year's online event opened up the possibility for the public to vote for their favourite poster and explanation. The most voted contribution by people outside IFISC was Irene Estébanez’s “Reservoir computing to recover optical communication signals”.
All posters and videos of the participants are available on this website.
