Marta Losada Falk is a Colombian high energy physicist, a pioneer of physics in Colombia, and the president of Antonio Nariño University.
She should be distinguished from her mother, American-born Colombian mathematician María Falk de Losada, who was rector of Antonio Nariño University from 2001 to 2010.
Losada earned a bachelor's and master's degree in physics at the National University of Colombia, where her mother was a mathematics professor.
[2] Losada's undergraduate expertise in particle physics was largely self-taught, as the National University did not offer courses on the subject at the time.
Through this work, she built a research group at her university and expanded the presence of high energy physics in Colombia.
