Jesus Alberto Jaimes Arriaga

Jesus received his bachelor's and master's degree in chemistry at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). He is currently working toward a Ph.D. at the University of Buenos Aires addressing the epistemological study of the quantum theory of atoms in molecules and its role in the definition of molecular structure. Jesus is interested in the foundational relationship between chemistry and physics and his goal is to build and develop new arguments in favor of the independence of chemistry as a scientific discipline, especially with regard to the education of new chemists who acquire solid chemical concepts proper to our scientific practice.
