Jorge’s research interests are focused on macroeconomics and labor economics. Most of his work relates to understanding how cross country differences in labor market institutions are related to cross country differences in labor supply.  Right now, his research agenda is focused on understanding how the duality of social protection in Latin America is related to the large share of the population that does not contribute to social security in these countries.

Claudia Gómez Wulschner was born in Mexico City. She got a Bachelor of Mathematics degree from National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), and an MS and a PhD in Mathematics from Washington State University.

Since 2000 she has been a full time professor at the Academic Department of Mathematics at ITAM. She is a member of the National System of Researchers (SNI).

My general area of research is statistical physics. The areas of current interest are mathematical modeling of population dynamics and some topics in mathematical economics.

Patterns that come up from nature, and their inherent beauty, have always been of my concerning. These structures are not only fascinating from an aesthetic point of view, but also because they specifically occur as a result of biological, chemical and physical processes. These might be the main reasons I pursued an undergraduate degree on Physics and a master’s degree on Applied Mathematics in the School of Sciences, National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM).

Prior to his studies, Andreas Wachtel worked for nine years for the German company Siemens in Germany, México and the USA.

He started his Bachelor degree in 2007, and finished his Masters degree in applied mathematics in 2012 at the Technical university of Dresden (Germany).

Then, he went on to do his PhD in applied mathematics at the University of Strathclyde (located in Glasgow, UK).

In December 2015 he finished this project, and found  a temporary job as a programmer at the Student Loans Company in England.

I did a postdoctoral research in during 2014-2016 at the University of Leeds (U.K.), under the direction of Professor John Truss, being invited by the London Mathematical Society in 2015, to give a talk about our work, in Durham. During my Ph.D. studies, at the Dresden University of Technology, I worked closely with clone and lattice theory, and universal algebra, more precisely with clones determined by sets of special relations, under the direction of Prof. Reinhard Pöschel.
