• Priscila Rosa received her PhD in Physics in 2013 from the University of Campinas, Brazil. After a postdoctoral appointment at the University of California at Irvine, she joined Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) as a Director’s Postdoctoral Fellow in 2015 before becoming a Staff Scientist in 2016. Her main research interest is the synthesis and characterization of strongly correlated quantum materials that exhibit emergent phenomena, such as unconventional superconductivity, electronic nematicity, complex magnetism, and non-trivial topology. Priscila Rosa has coauthored over 110 peer-reviewed articles, one patent, and two book chapters. She has also presented 40+ invited talks in national and international conferences. At Los Alamos, her research further focuses on the application of extreme conditions (high pressure, high magnetic field, and low temperatures) to tune novel materials towards desired functionality.
