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.

Sergei (Sergey) Ivanov was born on April 30, 1994, in Moscow. In 2011, he graduated from secondary school No. 849 in Moscow, specializing in a class with a humanitarian bias. Following secondary school, he enrolled at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) in the Faculty of Problems of Physics and Energy. Sergei earned his BSc from MIPT in 2015 and subsequently completed his MSc in 2017. During his academic journey, he gained valuable research experience at the Institute of Spectroscopy of the Russian Academy of Sciences (ISAN) under the guidance of Prof. A.M. Kamchatnov and Prof. Y.V. Kartashov. From 2017 to 2021, Sergei Ivanov pursued his studies in the MIPT postgraduate course, successfully defending his Ph.D. thesis titled “Dispersive shock waves in nonlinear optics, Bose-Einstein condensates, and other systems” by the end of 2021 in ISAN. During the period from 2017 to 2021, he contributed significantly to the sector of nonlinear physics within the theoretical department at ISAN. Additionally, from 2019 to 2021, he worked as a junior researcher at MIPT, focusing on research areas such as the dynamics of dispersive shock waves in nonlinear media and nonlinear optical topological insulators. Since January 2022, Sergei Ivanov has been working as a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Nonlinear Optical Phenomena group at The Institute of Photonic Sciences (ICFO). Under the mentorship of Group Leader Prof. Lluis Torner, Sergei's focus lies in investigating nonlinear optical processes within waveguide arrays, with a specific emphasis on studying solitons and topological insulators. Sergei's scientific interests encompass a broad spectrum, including nonlinear physics, nonlinear optics, nonlinear waves, topological insulators, solitons, dispersive shock waves, and numerical simulations. He has demonstrated his scholarly prowess by authoring over 35 papers in peer-reviewed reputable scientific journals.

Marie Krečmarová obtained her Ph. D degree in 2018 at the Czech Technical University in Prague (CVUT), Czech Republic. The doctoral thesis was focused on development of a microfluidic quantum sensor for detection of charged molecules based on nitrogen-vacancy colour defect electron transitions in diamond. She worked for 5 years at the Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences, Prague, Czech Republic, in group of Materials for Nanosystems and Biointerfaces, on Plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PE CVD) of diamond thin films, their material, optical and electrical characterizations and microfabrication. Within the Erasmus program she worked for 1 year at the Institute for Materials Research, Photonics and Quantum Lab, Hasselt, Belgium on PE CVD and Physical vapor deposition (PVD), photolithography microfabrication, electrochemistry and confocal microscopy. Currently as a Junior postdoctoral researcher, she is working on fabrication of 2-dimensional quantum emitters for scalable on-chip quantum photonic hybrid microsystems devices within the international project “Scalable Two-Dimensional Quantum Integrated Photonics” at the Institute of Materials Science, University of Valencia, Spain.

Metikoti Jagadeeswararao currently works as a post-doctoral fellow at the Institute of Material Science, University of Valencia, Spain. He received his PhD in Chemistry at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Pune, India, in May 2018. Subsequently, he pursued postdoctoral research at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, from December 2018 to September 2020, and at Pohang University of Science and Technology, Republic of Korea, from February 2021 to January 2023. His research interests primarily focus on solution processable semiconductors in the form nanocrystals and thin films, with a specific emphasis on designing novel metal halide perovskites and exploring their applications in optoelectronics and photocatalysis.
