Pablo Jarillo-Herrero (born June 11, 1976) is a Spanish physicist and current Cecil and Ida Green Professor of Physics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).{{cite web |url=http://web.mit.edu/physics/people/faculty/jarillo-herrero_pablo.html |title=MIT Physics faculty |access-date=October 18, 2020}}

Biography

Jarillo-Herrero was born in Valencia, Spain. In 1999 he received his Licenciatura in physics from the University of Valencia. Then he spent two years at the University of California, San Diego, where he received a MSc in 2001. In 2005 at the Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands he earned his PhD, and continued on to a postdoc. In 2006 he moved to Columbia University, where he worked as a NanoResearch Initiative Fellow. In January 2008 he joined MIT as an assistant professor of physics and received tenure. In 2018 he was promoted to Full Professor of Physics.{{Cite web|url=https://www.lasprovincias.es/tecnologia/investigacion/grafeno-mit-pablo-jarillo-herrero-20180328002445-nt.html |title=¿Por qué el grafeno cambiará el mundo? |first=Irma |last=Cuesta |publisher=Las provincias |date=March 30, 2018 |access-date=June 18, 2020 |language=es}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.upv.es/noticias-upv/noticia-6287-jarillo-en-la-es.html |title=Jarillo, en la UPV |publisher=Universidad Politécnica de Valencia |access-date=June 18, 2020 |language=es}}

In 2018 Jarillo-Herrero presented a new 2D-platform to investigate strongly correlated physics, based on graphene moiré superlattices.
