Diego Rodas Rodríguez

Born in Galicia, Spain, Diego Rodas Rodríguez studied at the University of Santiago de Compostela, where he was part of the gaseous detectors group at IGFAE (Galician Institute of High Energy Physics) during his undergraduate and master’s studies. He earned a Bachelor’s degree in Physics (2024) and a Master’s degree in Nuclear and Particle Physics (2025).

During this time, he contributed to the development of a high-pressure gaseous TPC demonstrator being part of the DUNE collaboration. His work involved designing a framework for event generation and reconstruction of neutrino interactions in an optically read TPC, commissioning the experimental setup and performing data analysis.

His research interests focus on detector development for astroparticle physics experiments and simulation techniques. He is particularly interested in advancing innovative technologies to enhance the sensitivity and precision of next-generation dark matter experiments.
