Dr. Daniel Fologea, Professor, Department of Physics

Sevio is an accomplished student in physics, chemistry and biology, and has conducted academic research at both Boise State and other institutions. At Boise State, he has worked in the labs of Drs. Jackson, Cornell, McClain, and Fologea on topics ranging from biochemistry to astronomy. This past summer, he worked in experimental particle physics under the guidance of Drs. Chad Freer and Christoph Paus at MIT.

Sevio deeply appreciates the mentorship he has received as an undergraduate and is committed to paying it forward. This fall, he will pursue a Ph.D. in Physics to contribute to a culture of academia that uplifts and equips all students with the requisite skills to pursue their intellectual interests. In particular, he aims to improve the accessibility of science education, starting by interweaving the fundamental concepts upon which all science is based into every level of coursework.

Sevio is from Boise, Idaho.
