Wanda Diaz Merced

Wanda Diaz Merced holds a PhD from the University of Glasgow in Scotland. Wanda worked at the European Gravitational Observatory in Pisa, Italy, the South African Observatory in Cape Town, SouthAfrica and the National Astronomical Observatory in Japan.

While performing as a postdoctoral fellow at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, Wanda evidenced through careful perception experiments and space science data analysis, that the use of sound increases the expert sighted astronomer sensitivity to events in the telemetry that by nature are undetectable to the human eye.

Wanda has applied the use of audio analysis of data to high-energy astrophysics, gravitational waves, and cosmic rays among others. She has worked with different subjects in astronomy, specializing in using multisensorial perception as an adaptive basis of expansion to figure out mathematics corresponding to the nature of space physics.
