Prof. El Haj Laamri is a Franco-Moroccan mathematician and university professor with a Doctorate and a Habilitation to Direct Research (HDR) in Mathematics. His academic career reflects a dual commitment to both advanced research and university-level teaching. His primary research lies in the field of mathematics, with an extensive publication record in leading international journals, particularly in the area of partial differential equations. In parallel with his mathematical research, Prof. Laamri has cultivated a strong interest in the history of mathematics, focusing on the evolution of algebra across civilizations, with special emphasis on the Arabic scientific tradition and its enduring influence on the development of modern algebra. Actively engaged in science outreach, he has been coordinating for nearly twenty years the public lecture series “Science and Society”, hosting numerous distinguished speakers, including Nobel Prize and Fields Medal laureates. In recognition of his engagement at the interface between research and society, he received the “Science and Société” Award from the Lorraine Region in 2014. Three years later, he was named Chevalier of the Ordre des Palmes Académiques, one of France’s oldest and most prestigious distinctions in the field of education and research.
