Gonzalo Suárez

I am a physicist, passionate about solving real life problems, using the powerful tools that statistical mechanics provides, from an interdisciplinary point of view. I received my PhD in 2017, from the Universidad Nacional de Mar del Plata, in Argentina. I have had five fruitful years as a Ph.D. Student, working at IFIMAR (Instituto de Investigaciones Físicas de Mar del Plata) where I studied the diffusion of interacting particles in confined environments. After that, I have been a postdoctoral associate in the Center for Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science (DIMACS) at Rutgers University, where I studied early detection algorithms with interest in cybersecurity . Currently, I keep working in this field, and broadening to modeling risk perception of vector-borne diseases, in the Department of Ecology & Evolutionary Biology at the University of Tennessee.
