In memory of César Gómez López

In memory of César Gómez López

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dear colleague Professor César Gómez, yesterday afternoon in Madrid.

This is a day of profound sadness for all of us. César was a founding member of our institute and one of the driving forces behind its creation, from its very beginnings.

A truly exceptional mind and a remarkable personality, whose imprint will forever remain in this institute, leaves us far too soon. His life was guided by an insatiable curiosity for every aspect of knowledge and by a deep commitment to challenging established paradigms, always with rigor, passion, and a profoundly original vision both of the human mind and of the laws that govern the cosmos.

May he rest in peace.
