Prof. Romeo Selvas (Ph.D.)
Prof Selvas received his B.S. degree in electronics from the Tuxtla Gutierrez Institute of Technology and an MSc in Optics from the National Institute for Astrophysics, Optics, and Electronics in Mexico in 1995 and 1998, respectively. During his MSc thesis work, he focused on investigating an erbium-doped single-mode fiber laser. From 1998 through 2003, he worked towards his Ph.D. at the Optoelectronics Research Centre of the University of Southampton in England, where his Ph.D. thesis focused on high-power ytterbium- and neodymium-doped fiber lasers. His research work to date has resulted in over 55 publications in scientific journals (JCR) and six patents. Collaborating with his colleagues at ORC, he achieved several record-breaking results and many world-first demonstrations of different photonics sources. His current research interests include high-power fiber lasers, nonlinear optics, and fiber sensors for telecom, sustainable energy, Smart City, and industrial applications

Premio UANL a la Invención-2020 (*)
Dear friends and colleagues,
I have had an excellent opportunity to showcase all the work my coworkers and students carried out over the last few years.
It is an honor to work with them and produce as much knowledge as possible, generating new results all related to photonics.
I founded the Student Chapters at the Autonomous University of Nuevo Leon in 2008:
The UANL SPIE Student Chapter: The International Society for Optics and Photonics (WEB)
The UANL OSA Student Chapter: The Optical Society of America
I would like to express my gratitude to the institutions and companies that have supported the research work conducted by me and my team over the years. Without their grants, the progress in optics at the FLG would have been different, and I appreciate their support
As the lead researcher of my group, I organized a series of events every year where I invited several national and international researchers to share their research and scientific work in sustainability and optics and strengthen agreements and collaboration plans between our universities.
​
The Symposium on Applied Optics, Sustainability, and Energy was organized at UANL annually. These events allowed us to meet with outstanding researchers and fostered collaboration in our field.
