I had the pleasure of joining an online panel alongside fellow award-winning scientists from the National Academy of Exact, Physical, and Natural Sciences (ANCEFN) to share insights from our research with the public. The panel was expertly coordinated by Dr. Gloria Dubner and moderated by esteemed science journalist Nora Bär.
The full conversation can be found in YouTube (in spanish). My participation stars at 1:01:59
This year, I had the privilege of participating as a mentor in the NASA Space Apps Challenge, with the local event organized by CONAE, IBM, and CAECE. It was an inspiring experience to guide and support teams in Buenos Aires as they tackled real-world challenges. Over the course of 48 hours, participants worked on innovative solutions related to space exploration and Earth sciences. It was incredible to witness the creativity, collaboration, and passion of all participants.
I had another virtual chat about galaxies and astrophysics with students from the Osiris Astronomy Club.
The club is based in Bariloche and El Bolsón, in the Argentinian Patagonia.
I am grateful to the students and their teacher, Marcelo Alvarez, for their interest and their excellent questions.

We received at Andrés Bello University visiting students from the Physical-Mathematical Study Association (“FMF”) based in Groningen, The Netherlands. Every other year they organize a large excursion abroad (“GBE”) for their members to a destination outside of Europe.
As part of their excursion, we gave them a tour of the campus, and a glimpse into our research.
I was invited to Rinconada de Silva school, near Santiago de Chile, to speak about galaxies and simulations with students.
I was invited to Lidia Matte school, near Santiago de Chile to speak about galaxies with students. This was part of a terrific program from CONICYT to link students and scientists.
Students at the astronomical observatory of the Colegio Nacional de Buenos Aires observed the partial solar eclipse and made pictures and mesurements. Congratulations to their teacher, Araceli Barrera for organizing this activity. It was very fun to participate.
