Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Ortuño is an Assistant Professor and condensed matter physicist with 11 years of experience specializing in nano-magnetism, micromagnetics, and rock magnetism, bridging theoretical models with hands-on computational tools. He has led and contributed to Micromagnetic Tomography efforts across Utrecht, Southampton, and UTFSM, and currently holds a 3-year Fondecyt Iniciación grant to study magnonic nanostructures and magnetic grains that record Earth’s field. Skilled in scientific software engineering, he develops and maintains C and Python libraries such as Fidimag, OOMMFPy, and bespoke Micromagnetic Tomography toolkits used by experimental groups. David regularly collaborates with diverse experimental and theoretical teams and supervises graduate research, translating complex physics into reproducible code and numerical methods. A less obvious strength is his ability to operate across scales—from discrete-spin simulations to mesoscale micromagnetics—enabling novel comparisons between lab rock samples and nanoscale devices.
