Selected Outreach:
* Co-creadora de Taller científico para niñas de enseñanza media "Niñas Atómicas".
Science workshop aimed at high-school girls, led together with Prof. Francisca Garay from PUC and SAPHIR Millenium Institute. We plan to to teach girls transferable skills (such as fundamental physics, programming, electronics) through the development of a particle physics experiment as well as useful human/professional skills (such as resilience and effective communication), with the hope to give them the necessary tools, in a safe and un-biassed environment, to help them decide wether or not to pursue a future scientific career.
