Communicating my research is an important part of my work. Here are some of the talks and presentations I've given over the years.

Clubes de Ciencia

Talk, Nattural Sciences Faculty, Guanajuato State University, Guanajuato, Mexico

In collaboration with the Clubes de Ciencia, I aided in the organization and technical execution of a week-long workshop for high school students. The workshop was focused on the basics of Quantum Computing, and the students were able to program their own quantum algorithms. The workshop was given in Spanish and English.

TimeLayers

This project was part of the Public Entrepreneurship Laboratory at the School of Government and Public Transformation of the Tecnológico de Monterrey. The talk was given in English.

Python Workshop

Talk, Engineering Faculty, Guanajuato State University, Salamanca, Mexico

In collaboration with the IEEE Student Branch, I gave a 40 hr Python workshop to students of the Engineering Faculty. The goal of this workshop was to compliment the students’ education with a practical approach to programming. The workshop was given in Spanish.

Niños en la ciencia

December 01, 2013

Talk, Municipalities of Guanajuato, México, Guanajuato, Mexico

As part of the Ciencia en Movimiento program, and in collaboration with the Guanajuato Network for Science Communication, I gave talks to elementary school kids with topics like cognitive science, epistemology, and meta-science. The goal was to inspire kids to pursue a career in science, and to show them that science is not only for adults. The talks were given in Spanish.
