He received his Bachelor’s degree in Physics from the University of Havana in 1997 and his Master’s degree in Physics in 1999. Subsequently, he completed his Ph.D. in Physics at the Balseiro Institute in Argentina thanks to a scholarship from the Latin American Physics Center (CLAF). He finished his doctorate in 2004. Subsequently, he carried out postdoctoral studies at the International Center for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) in Trieste, Italy and at the University of Antwerp, Belgium. Since 2009, he has been a CONICET researcher with a workplace at the Bariloche Atomic Center and since 2013 a teacher at the Balseiro Institute in Bariloche, which belongs to the National University of Cuyo. Initially, he carried out research on the formation of magnetic flux patterns in superconductors and since 2005 his main research line has been the electronic and magnetic properties of new materials using first-principles calculations using Density Functional Theory (DFT).

Mario Reis is an Associate Professor at the Fluminense Federal University in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where he leads a research group comprised of graduate students and postdoctoral researchers. Prof. Reis received his PhD in 2003, from the Brazilian Center for Research in Physics (Rio de Janeiro) and the University of Aveiro (Portugal), focusing on both the experimental and theoretical aspects of Condensed Matter Physics.
