Forskning

Inga Berre er professor ved Matematisk institutt og senterleder for Senter for modellering av koblet undergrunnsdynamikk () ved Universitetet i Bergen. Hun leder ogsÃ¥ . I 2023 var hun Argyris Visiting Professor ved SimTech Cluster of Excellence, Universitetet i Stuttgart. 

Hennes forskningsomrÃ¥der er matematisk modellering, partielle differensialligninger og numeriske metoder, motivert av simulering av koblede termo-hydro-mekanisk-kjemiske prosesser i undergrunnssystemer og reaktivering av forkastninger som følge av injeksjon og produksjon. Hun leder flere forskningsprosjekter innen dette temaet, inkludert ERC Consolidator Grant prosjektet "Mathematical and Numerical Modelling of Process-Structure Interaction in Fractured Geothermal Systems" (, 2021-2026). 

Inga Berre har hatt en rekke valgte lederposisjoner internasjonalt, inkludert (medlem, 2022-2027), (chair 2021-2022), (co-chair, 2019-2021), og , European Energy Research Alliance (leder, 2018-2021). 

Inga Berre er medlem av det internasjonale ekspertpanelet for "" (2021-2027), som rÃ¥dgir det nederlandske økonomidepartementet. Hun er ogsÃ¥ medlem av fem internasjonale vitenskapelige rÃ¥dgivningspanler, inkludert Scientific Advisory Council for (2024-2027) og Advisory Board for , Universitetet i Stuttgart (2018-). Hun er Associate Editor for , Springer (2020-) og (2024-), og medlem av Editorial Board for  (2023-) og . 

Ved Universitetet i Bergen er Berre medlem av Universitetsstyret (2021-2025). Hun har ogsÃ¥ vært medlem av flere styrer i Norges forskningsrÃ¥d, inkludert Porteføljestyret for naturvitenskap og teknologi (2019-2023) og Divisjonsstyret for vitenskap (2015-2019). 

Berre er innvalgt medlem av Norges tekniske vitenskapsakademi (2017-) og medlem av Association for ERC Grantees. Hun mottok Meltzerprisen for yngre forskere 2011. 

Undervisning

Inga Berre har hatt ansvar for undervisning og utvikling av kurs på bachelor- og masternivå innen kalkulus, funksjonsanalyse, matematisk modellering og numeriske metoder, samt energi. I 2015 hadde hun ansvar for det én ukes kurset "Future Energy Landscapes" ved Bergen Summer Research School - The Sustainable Development Goals.
