Oxford Mathematician Massimiliano Gubinelli has been awarded the 2026 XL Medal for Mathematics by Accademia Nazionale Delle Scienze, Italy's National Academy of Science which was founded in Verona in 1782.
Max is our Wallis Professor of Mathematics, Head of the Stochastic Analysis Group and a Fellow at St Anne's College. His research focuses on rough path theory, stochastic PDEs, and Euclidean quantum field theory, where he has helped develop modern tools for understanding highly irregular systems and random phenomena.
Max has also held positions in Paris and Bonn, and was an invited speaker at the 2018 International Congress of Mathematicians.
