Diego de la Fuente's website

A postdoctoral researcher in astrophysics, based in the University of Alicante, Spain

Who am I?

My name is Diego de la Fuente, and I hold a PhD in astrophysics since 2016. After spending some years doing research at Centro de Astrobiología (INTA/CSIC, Madrid, Spain) and Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (Ensenada, Mexico), now I am based in the University of Alicante (Spain). Also, I have recently made a 1-year research visit to the University of Central Florida (USA).

My main research interests are young star clusters in the Milky Way, massive star formation, and infrared spectroscopy. On the technical side, I am an expert in data reduction and pipeline software development.
