Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMario Ortega is an Assistant Professor and neutrino physicist with eight years of post-PhD research and teaching experience focused on neutrino oscillations and the role of sterile neutrinos in matter-affected propagation. He develops numerical codes and analytical descriptions to compute transition probabilities and connects theoretical results to experimental data analysis. His work spans academia in Colombia, Mexico, and Italy, including postdoctoral projects on reactor and Gallium anomalies and an anti-neutrino detector for reactor monitoring. He teaches introductory and quantum physics courses while maintaining an active research program probing neutrinos’ impact on cosmology. Colleagues know him as a “neutrino hunter” who combines hands-on computational modeling with a deep interest in fundamental cosmological implications.
