Dr. Jorge Giner Navarro graduated with honors in Physics from the Universitat de València in 2012 and completed his Master's degree in Advanced Physics in 2013 at the same university. Later, he was awarded a doctoral student fellowship at CERN from 2013 to 2016 to carry out his thesis, attached to the Accelerator Physics Group of the Instituto de Física Corpuscular (IFIC) and the Universitat de València. His thesis, defended in 2017, focused on phenomenological studies of vacuum breakdowns in high-gradient, high-frequency compact accelerator structures with applications in future linear colliders and medical hadron therapy accelerators. For this, he had direct collaboration with the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) project and the development of the new high-power facilities at IFIC-IFIMED. In 2017, he obtained a postdoctoral scholar contract at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA), and between 2019 and 2024 he belonged to the Accelerator Unit of the Centro de Investigaciones Energéticas Medioambientales y Terrestres (CIEMAT). Since 2024, he is part of the NOVAS group at the Instituto de Ciencia de los Materiales de la Universitat de València (ICMUV) as a senior postdoctoral researcher.

He had an excellent education from distinguished schools in the field of Particle Accelerators such as the Joint Universities Accelerator School (JUAS), CERN Accelerator School (CAS), and the Linear Collider School. Among his extensive experience as an Accelerator Physicist, highlights include his work in designing, manufacturing, and experimentally validating accelerator structures and RF components, conducting particle beam tracking simulations, developing beam diagnostic systems, and operating accelerator lines for experiments.
