Manuel Calderon de la Barca SánchezProfessor of PhysicsManuel Calderon de la Barca Sánchez hailsMexico City, and started his Physics journeywhen he attended college at the Tec deMonterrey, majoring in Engineering Physics.In Mexico, there were only a few places topursue a physics scientific career, particularly inhigh-energy physics. He enrolled in CINVESTAV(Center for Research and Advanced Study) fromthe National Polytechnic Institute, and won ascholarship for a summer research programat CERN. He entered the area of heavy ioncollisions via the NA49 experiment. This openedup the doors to graduate school in the US,where he obtained his Ph.D. at Yale, doing hisgraduate work in the STAR experiment at theRelativistic Heavy Ion Collider in BrookhavenNational Lab. His thesis work was the firstone to be published by a graduate student inSTAR. He then joined Brookhaven Lab as apostdoc in 2002 and then as a staff scientist in2003. Having a passion for teaching, he joinedthe faculty at Indiana University in 2004. Hethen moved to UC Davis in 2006, has been atUC Davis working on research in heavy-ioncollisions with the STAR detector and at CERNwith the CMS detector. He loves teaching thenext generation of students, and engaging inoutreach opportunities particularly with womenand Latinos in Physics. He is an avid outdoorenthusiast, including snowboarding, scubadiving, hiking, and backcountry splitboarding.He is the science advisor in the giant screen filmabout the Physics of the LHC, “Secrets of theUniverse”, where he introduces audiences tonuclear collisions at the largest collider inthe world.Committee & ContributorsCaroline CabiasNancy AldereteUC Chicanx Latinx Alumni AssociationUndergraduate AdmissionsElaina LopezNeil D.
