[edit]

Ana Maria Cetto "Kramis" (born "on February 18th,"1946, in Mexico City) is a Mexican physicist "and professor". "her work specializes" in quantum mechanical theoretical physics, stochastic, electrodynamics, and biophysics of light; she is known for her contributions in the field of quantum mechanics, and for her labor as a pacifist. From 2003 to 2010 she was Deputy Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). She is also professor at the Faculty of Sciences at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) "from 1979-1982.", of which she was also director. Cetto "Kramis" is responsible for several scientific literature programs in Latin America and for several international programs on the promotion and participation of women in science.

Early life and education

[edit]

She has a bachelor's degree in physics from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) and graduate degrees from both, Harvard University and the National Autonomous University of Mexico. At Harvard University, she did a master's degree in biophysics, then returning to Mexico, where she obtained her master's degree and PhD in physics at UNAM. Becoming the first woman doctorate in Mexico.[1] She is a researcher at the Physics Institute of the UNAM, and professor at the Faculty of Sciences of the same university. "Cotto Kramis also holds honorary doctorates from Tajik State National University (TSNU) from 2007 and the Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences in 2010 (CITE)"

She is also the daughter of the renowned Mexican architect Max Cetto.

Professional Career

[edit]

Ana María Cetto Kramis is an expert in theoretical physics, her specialty is Quantum Mechanics, Stochastic Electrodynamics and Biological Physics. She has been director of the Faculty of Sciences at UNAM (1978-1982),[2] as well as a professor, and researcher at UNAM. She was elected president of the executive committee 2021-2022 of the Mexican Physical Society.[3]

Ana María Cetto has been involved in the management boards of several international organizations. In 1995, she was council member of the Pugwash Conferences "when the organization won the Nobel Peace Prize.[4] In 2002 she was appointed as general secretary of the International Council for Science (ICSU), becoming the first Latin American person appointed to the position.[5] Cetto Kramis has also been a founding vice president of the Third World Organization for Women in Science (TWOWS). From 2003 to 2010 she was Deputy Technical Director of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).[6] She has also been a member of the Governing Board of the United Nations University (UNU) and President of the Council of the International Foundation for Science (IFS).

Cetto's trajectory has been recognized in different occasions: she was awarded as "Woman of the Year" in Mexico in 2003,[7] and she has also received several other distinctions as a member of the Third World Academy of Science, the Mexican Academy of Science, the Mexican Physics Academy and the American Physical Society. She is also a member of the World Future Council.

In 2015, the University of Guadalajara created the "Ana María Cetto Chair for the Diffusion of Scientific Culture" in recognition of her scientific work.[8] Ana María Cetto has also participated in several international programs aimed at promoting women's participation in science. Because of her advocacy activities, she received the "Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz" distinction awarded by the UNAM.[9] She is also responsible for scientific information programs in Latin America, and programs for the promotion and participation of women in science as well.

Throughout her trajectory, she has been committed to promoting women's participation in science. Among various initiatives, she is part of the jury of the Ada Byron Award, Mexico Chapter,[10] an award created by the University of Deusto to recognize women who work in the labor fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

Museum of Light

[edit]

Ana María Cetto participated in the project focused on the creation of the Museum of Light in Mexico City. The Museum of Light is a thematic museum of the General Directorate for the Dissemination of Science of UNAM, and was inaugurated in 1996.[11] Cetto was in charge of its renovation in 2016.[12] She was also a promoter of the International Year of Light 2015 and belongs to the International Steering Committee of the International Day of Light.[13][14]

Scientific dissemination

[edit]

Another of her lines of work has been the dissemination of scientific content. She has directed the Mexican Journal of Physics and is the founding president of Latindex, the Regional Online Information System for Ibero-American Scientific Journals created in 1997.[15]

in articles section I am adding her most recent work.

I ALSO THINK THERE SHOULD BE A SECTION EXPLAINING SOME OF HER MOST NOTABLE PUBLISHED WORK. THE PREVIOUS SECTION ONLY SHOWS THE ATRICLES THEMSELVES LACKING ANY SUMMARY OF WHAT SHE HAS ACTUALLY DONE A SCIENTIFIC SETTING:

"The article focusses on the fundamental property of spin in electrons and highlights its significance with wide-ranging implications. It acknowledges that the formal treatment of spin often obscures the physical content and meaning of the spin operator and associated observables. The study is looking for the meaning behind the formalism by revisiting basic facts about the one-particle spin operator and analyzing spin projection operator correlation functions." -this is my interpretation with help from my family friend who is a physicist. Im not sure if this is necessary, but when looking at notable physicists, there are sections explaining their studies, so why not do the same for Cetto Kramis.
