Graduate Program in Materials, PROMAT

I chaired the program’s Coordinating Council from 2012 to 2023, a role bridging departments and institutes around materials science, and I remain a member of its Board. I have taught Solid State Physics there since 2003.

Science communication

Science within everyone’s reach

Causa y efectoCause and Effect

I produced and hosted this weekly show on Radio Universidad, AM 1240, devoted to bringing science to the general public. It received the Lanín de Oro Award and the Río de los Pájaros Binational Award.

Ciencia en juegoScience at Play

Since 2021 I have taken part in a letter exchange with school students across the country, within CONICET’s program to promote scientific vocations. See the program
