About Pablo Martínez

Pablo Martínez Ruiz del Árbol received his doctorate from the University of Cantabria in 2010. His main topic of work was the alignment of the muon system of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at CERN's Large Hadron Collider, for which he moved to Geneva in 2008. In 2010 he was hired as a postdoctoral researcher and later as a senior scientist by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology at Zurich (ETHZ), being stationed at CERN and focusing his research on the search for supersymmetric particles in the CMS experiment. Between 2010 and 2017 he led several analysis and held various coordination positions within the CMS collaboration as head of trigger, simulation and interpretations for supersymmetric searches, and as head of the third generation supersymmetric particle search group. In 2017 he was hired as a Ramón y Cajal researcher at the Physics Institute of Cantabria where he continues his activity searching for supersymmetric particles and dark matter. Since 2018 he has participated in the design and construction of the MIPs Timing Detector (MTD), a detector capable of measuring the time of passage of particles with high precision and which will be installed in CMS for the HL-LHC. Since 2019, Pablo has been in charge of the Data Performance Group of this detector, which includes its entire software chain: geometry, reconstruction, performance, etc. In 2015 Pablo co-founded a company dedicated to the application of muon tomography to industry problems. Since then, he has developed an intense activity in this line.
