Kort info
Forskning
Inga Berre er professor ved Matematisk institutt og senterleder for Senter for modellering av koblet undergrunnsdynamikk () ved Universitetet i Bergen. Hun leder også . I 2023 var hun Argyris Visiting Professor ved SimTech Cluster of Excellence, Universitetet i Stuttgart.
Hennes forskningsområder 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 rådgir det nederlandske økonomidepartementet. Hun er også medlem av fem internasjonale vitenskapelige rådgivningspanler, 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 også vært medlem av flere styrer i Norges forskningsråd, 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.
