Biography
editJavier Santaolalla Camino was born in Burgos, Spain. He studied Telecommunications Engineering at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria[4] and has a degree in physical sciences from the Complutense University of Madrid. After being accepted at CERN to study for a master's degree, he received his doctorate in particle physics, also from the UCM, in 2012, with a thesis on electroweak processes in muon decay in the CMS experiment at the LHC.[5] He has also coordinated the educational innovation project Creations, funded by the European Union.[6]
Along with Santi García Cremades, Ana Payo Payo and Eduardo Sáenz de Cabezón, he is a member of the Big Van Ciencia group since 2013, dedicated to scientific outreach events.[7] He participates in Órbita Laika,[8] a late night science of scientific popularizer and humor talk show broadcast on the Spanish network La 2.[9] He is the creator of the YouTube channels Date un voltio, Date un vlog, Date Un Show.[10][11] For his scientific humor monologue for the Famelab contest, he received the 2015 Aquae Award.[12] He has been described by Infolibre as "the greatest Spanish scientific popularizer on the web".[13] Since February 2021,[14] together with La gata de Schrödinger, he has presented the program Whaat!? How do you see it, from the RTVE digital platform, playz.[15][16]
