She is a researcher in the Institute of Mathematics of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). [1]
O'Reilly-Regueiro is originally from Mexico City. She was a mathematics student at UNAM, graduating in 1995. For the next two years she continued to work at UNAM as an assistant in the mathematics department of the Faculty of Chemistry, while studying harpsichord at UNAM's National School of Music , working there with musician Luisa Durón. [2]
Next, with a scholarship from the UNAM Dirección General de Asuntos del Personal Académico (DGAPA), she traveled to England for graduate study at Imperial College London, at that time part of the University of London system. [2] She completed her PhD in 2003. Her dissertation, Flag-Transitive Symmetric Designs, was supervised by Martin Liebeck. [3]
On completing her doctorate, she returned to UNAM as a researcher for the Institute of Mathematics. [1] [2]
O'Reilly-Regueiro was elected to the Mexican Academy of Sciences in 2022. [4]
Ana María CettoKramis is a Mexican physicist and professor. She is known for her contributions to quantum mechanics, stochastic, electrodynamics, and biophysics of light, and for her work as a pacifist. From 2003 to 2010 she was Deputy Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). She is also professor at the Faculty of Sciences at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), of which she was also director. Cetto is responsible for several scientific literature programs in Latin America and for several international programs on the promotion and participation of women in science.
The Faculty of Sciences at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) is the entity where natural and exact science-based majors are taught. It has both undergraduate and graduate studies, some of the former in joint teaching with other faculties, most commonly the Faculty of Engineering. The Faculty of Sciences is the most important science school in the country by the number of students and the quality of its research. Together with the research institutes that surround it, it is considered one of the biggest research complexes of the UNAM.

Antígona Segura Peralta is a Mexican physicist and astrobiologist. Since 2006, she has been a researcher at the Institute of Nuclear Sciences of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) and collaborator at the NASA Astrobiology Institute. As a feminist she actively advocates for the inclusion of women in the exact sciences, mathematics, and engineering. Segura has participated in several activities in and outside UNAM defending women's rights; she was awarded with the 2021 Hermila Galindo medal by the Congress of Mexico City.
Larissa Adler Lomnitz was a French-born Chilean-Mexican social anthropologist, researcher, professor, and academic. After living in France, Colombia, and Israel, she received Chilean nationality by marriage and Mexican nationality by residence. She conducted research and studies regarding the way in which marginalized classes survive in Latin America. She pioneered the study of social networks and the study of the importance of trust for the economy and politics. Her first study in this regard focused on the exchange of favors in the Chilean middle class. Lomnitz completed her doctoral thesis about the importance of exchanging favors and confidence in the informal economy in Mexico City. She then explored the importance of social networks in very diverse fields: scientific communities, the Mexican upper class, and the teaching profession in Chile, among others. She wrote more than 70 chapters in books, nine books, and various popular articles for magazines.
