Ignacio Mendigutía

On January 2012 I defended my PhD thesis at Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (Spain). Then I spent five exciting years as a Post-Doctoral Fellow at Clemson University (USA) and the University of Leeds (UK). Thanks to the funding by Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid aimed at attracting "Research Talent" working abroad, I returned to my home city  in 2017. After being awarded a "Ramón y Cajal" Fellowship, I currently work at Centro de Astrobiología (CSIC-INTA) as a Senior Research Scientist.

My main research interest is the study of gas and dust "protoplanetary" disks around young stars. To this end, I make use of a variety of observational techniques including spectro-photometry, spectro-astrometry, interferometry, or high-spatial resolution imaging from space and ground-based telescopes.
