Dr. L贸pez Valdez's Ph.D. thesis focused on coding theory from an algebraic point of view.
From 2016-2018, Dr. L贸pez was a Postdoctoral Fellow under direction of Dr. Felice Manganiello in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Clemson University. In 2020, the website Lathisms 2020, which showcases contributions of Latinx and Hispanic mathematicians , featured the Assistant Professor . His other research highlights can be found at .
When "Diverse: Issues in Higher Education" asked what part of his academic journey he is most proud, Dr. L贸pez Valdez had a surprising answer for them: 鈥淭he people I have met because of the research... I have been able to connect with many great people that I had no idea existed.鈥 He also told them he's committed to creating a path for other mathematicians and helping them to connect to one another. That's inspired action, to be sure, and something 香蕉福利直播 prides itself on every single day.
