Dr. Marcos Mazari-Armida received his bachelor’s degree at UNAM (Mexico) and his Ph.D. at Carnegie Mellon University. He received the 2021 Sacks Prize from the Association for Symbolic Logic for the best thesis in mathematical logic in the world in 2021. Before coming to Baylor, Marcos was a postdoc at the University of Colorado Boulder. His research primarily focuses on finding connections between logic and algebra. More specifically, he works at the interface between model theory and module theory. You can read more about Marcos here https://sites.baylor.edu/marcos_mazari/.
