プロフィール概要

Florencia is a nuclear scientist and engineer from Mexico, specializing in Nuclear Core Design within the Nuclear Industry. She is the Innovation Co-Leader of the Women in Nuclear Innovation (WiNI) Group of Expertise at WiN Global. From 2017 to 2024, she actively participated in the International Atomic Energy Agency's (IAEA) Technical Cooperation fellowship programs, supporting nuclear power infrastructure and capacity-building efforts in member states expanding nuclear energy. Florencia served as the Technical Secretary of the Mexican Network for Education, Training, and Nuclear Research (REMECIN) from June 2022 to November 2023. REMECIN facilitates research, education, and training in nuclear technology among Mexican institutions while promoting knowledge preservation. She also advises various nuclear industry NGOs, including the AJENM, WiN Young Generation Governance Board, and NAYGN, and serves as a reviewer for the Nuclear Science Journal at Science Publishing Group (New York). She holds a Bachelor's in Chemical Engineering from Instituto Tecnologico de la Laguna (Mexico, 2016) and a Master's in Nuclear Power Plant Engineering from KEPCO International Nuclear Graduate School (South Korea, 2017-2019). Florencia completed her Ph.D. in Nuclear Science and Technology at Harbin Engineering University (China, 2019-2023), specializing in Advanced Reactor Physics. During her Ph.D., she contributed to the development of the High-Fidelity Neutron Transport (HNET) code. Florencia is passionate about fostering global partnerships and international cooperation to advance nuclear science and technology, ensuring the safe, secure, and sustainable development of nuclear power programs. —Professional Expertise: 1.
