Isabelle Gallagher

Isabelle Gallagher (born 27 October 1973) is a French mathematician. Her research concerns partial differential equations such as the Navier–Stokes equations, wave equation, and Schrödinger equation, as well as harmonic analysis of the Heisenberg group.[1][2]

Gallagher was born on October 27, 1973, in Cagnes-sur-Mer.[3] She earned her Ph.D. from Pierre and Marie Curie University in 1998. Her dissertation, supervised by Jean-Yves Chemin, concerned fluid dynamics.[4] She worked at the French Centre national de la recherche scientifique and then, in 2004, became a professor at Paris Diderot University.[1]

In 2008, the French Academy of Sciences gave her their biennial Paul Doistau–Émile Blutet Prize.[2] She was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 2014.[5] She won the CNRS Silver Medal in 2016.[6]
