Mole Conference 2022

Mole Conference 2022

25.Jul - 29. Jul, 2022 Cod. Z27-22

Description

The unexpected demise of Professor Juan José Sáenz, on March 22, 2020, has left his beloved family and friends in shock all over the globe.

Not by chance our friend Juanjo named his research group MoLE, standing for Moving of Light and Electrons, as a funny twist merging his passion for physics, colleagues, friends and family to whom, with no exception, Juanjo was known as Mole.

Following this spirit, MoLE conference 2022 is devoted to honouring his memory the way Mole would have liked: Appreciated colleagues and friends presenting and discussing their most recent advances, in both electronics and photonics. All that in the cosy atmosphere that only the city of Donostia, another Mole’s passion, provides with.

It will be a pleasure for us to meet you once again in Donostia, this time for our beloved friend, mentor and admired human being and Scientist.

Speakers

Javier Aizpurua

CFM, Centro Física de Materiales (CSIC-UPV/EHU) – DIPC

Researcher with CSIC, the Spanish scientific research council, at the CFM materials physics centre in San Sebastián where he leads the Nanophotonics Theory Group.  Javier Aizpurua gained his doctorate in Physics at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) in 1998 for work on the interaction of rapid electrons and nanostructures. After his pre-doctoral stage, he spent two periods as a post-doctoral researcher, one at Chalmers Technology University in Gothenburg, Sweden, and the other at the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). In 2004, Aizpurua joined DIPC, the Donostia International Physics Center, as a research fellow, starting to train a nanophotonics group. In 2008 he was awarded a permanent scientific place at the CSIC, taking responsibility for the photonics line of research at CFM, the Materials Physics Centre in San Sebastián, where he has worked ever since.

Juan José Gómez Cadenas

Ph.D. in 1987 at the University of Valencia. Scholar at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, Harvard University, the University of Geneva and CERN. In Spain, he has been a professor at the University of Valencia and a professor at the CSIC. In 2018 he moved to the DIPC in Donostia, as Ikerbasque Professor. He has been a leading experimenter in particle physics for over twenty years. In 2009 he proposed NEXT to the Canfranc Underground Laboratory (LSC) in Canfranc. The goal of the experiment, widely recognized as one of the pioneers in the field, is to discover neutrinoless double beta decays in Xe-137. He is currently the spokesperson for the experiment. In 2016 he was a co-recipient, as a member of the K2K and T2K collaborations of the Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics. Gómez-Cadenas received an ERC Advanced Grant in 2013 to develop the first NEXT demonstrator and an ERC Synergy Grant (in 2019), together with Prof. F. Cossío (UPV/EHU) and Prof. R. Guenette (U. Harvard/U. Manchester) to develop new fundus reduction techniques. He has published 261 articles, supervised 15 doctoral theses and has been a member of numerous international conference advisory panels and various scientific committees.
