Universidade de São Paulo (USP). Instituto de Astronomia, Geofísica e Ciências Atmosféricas (IAG) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Colômbia
I graduated in Physics at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia and made my PhD studies at IAG, São Paulo University (2009). I have been a postdoctoral fellow at the Nordic Institute of Theoretical Physics, NORDITA, in Sweden. Currently I am at Stanford University where I work as a postdoctoral scholar in the Solar Physics Group. My main topics of research involve the generation of cosmic magnetic fields through the dynamo mechanism. astrophysical plasmas, turbulent thermal convection and, specially, the theoretical and numerical study of the solar magnetic cycle.

From clusters of galaxies to stars and planets magnetic field has demonstrated to be ubiquitous in nature. The observed magnetic field strength suggests that it does not have a cosmological origin but is the result of a dynamical process of generation. The global problem to be addressed by this research plan regards the generation of magnetic fields in cosmic objects through the hydromag…
