M. Ángeles Losada received the Ph.D. degree in physics from the Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Madrid, Spain, in 1990. From 1991 to 1994, she was a postdoctoral researcher at the McGill Vision Research Laboratories, McGill University, Montréal, QC, Canada, and, afterwards, at the Institute for Research in Optics of the Scientific Research Council of Spain, Madrid. In 1997, she joined the Department of Electronic Engineering and Communications, University of Zaragoza, Zaragoza, Spain. She received a full professorship in 2018. Since 2003, she has been a member of the Photonic Technologies Group, Aragon Institute for Engineering Research, University of Zaragoza. Her present research interests are centered in optical communications and in particular, the application of plastic optical fibers as the media for optical networks in short-haul environments. She is leading a grant to promote plastic optical fiber technology for enhanced communication links funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation (MICINN/FEDER).
