About me
I am Miroslava, I was born in Mexico, where I grew up and studied the bachelor in Physics. I then moved to Germany to continue with my master's and PhD studies in Mathematical Physics. I currently reside in the United Kingdom.
I am Miroslava, I was born in Mexico City, Iztapalapa, in 1993, where I grew up and lived most of my life. I studied the bachelor in Physics at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México in Mexico City. I also worked there as a professor's assistant in a couple of courses. I did my thesis work on quantization of nonconservative systems, a topic in Mathematical Physics.
When I finished my studies, I did a summer research stay at The Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics, in Trieste, Italy, where I learned about quantum fluctuations generated during inflation. I then returned to Mexico, where I spent one year working in a call center to finance my master's studies.
I then moved to Hamburg, Germany, to continue studying a master's program in Mathematical Physics. My thesis was about superintegrable systems on moduli spaces of flat connections. After having finished my master's studies, I moved back to Mexico for some time, where I started working as an associate professor at the university where I studied. I taught for two semesters a lecture on selected topics on mathematical physics.
I then continued with my PhD studies in Germany, but now in Mainz, where I have been working on topics like 3d supersymmetric gauge theories and their connection with quantum cohomology and quantum K-theory, the arithmetic aspects of the Hasse-Weil zeta function of Calabi-Yau operators, and non-abelian T-duality.
I like giving academic and outreach talks. I have organized a couple of online meetings and conferences, especially directed to women and Latin American students in theoretical physics and high-energy physics. I have supervised a couple of undergraduate students' articles for a student's online magazine from Heidelberg University. During my stay in Germany, I have also tutored courses for Physics undergraduates and also in the online program Physics LATAM supported by The Abdus Salam ICTP.
My mother language is Spanish, I am fluent in English, my level of German is intermediate, and I am learning Finnish little by little. I enjoy writing short stories, poems, and essays about different topics. I like street photography. I am also interested in the cultural and social dimensions of knowledge, particularly in topics related to gender, inequality, migration, and access to education and culture.
