Hi everyone! My name is Indira Ocampo Justiniano, I was born in Tarija, Bolivia (although lived all my life in La Paz, the highest "capital" in the world, 3600mts!), and I'm currently based in Spain (where I am doing my PhD and recently got citizenship).  

My first time living in a different country was when I decided to do a Master's degree at Moscow State University in Astrophysics, which was held in Russian (yes, now I speak Russian!).  Then I was accepted in the ICTP Postgraduate Diploma Programme, in Trieste, Italy, where I did a one-year predoctoral training in High Energy, Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics. All this led me to the Instituto de Física Teórica, where I'm currently doing a PhD in Cosmology thanks to the support of the "la Caixa Doctoral Fellowship". During these years of my training, I also took part of the LEAPS program, and the Archival Research Visitor Programme, both research internships at the European Space Agency.
