Personnel: Anthony Aguirre at UC Santa Cruz (Professor of Physics)

1 check · 4/9/2026

The source confirms that Anthony Aguirre is a professor of physics at UC Santa Cruz. However, the source does not provide a specific start date for his position. The 2004 start date in the record is unverified by the source text. A 2016 reference mentions his appointment to an endowed chair, but this appears to be a later honor, not his initial appointment. The record is partially confirmed (person, org, and role are correct) but the startDate of 2004 cannot be verified from this source.
