SUMMARY:Thinking about stellar populations modeling
DESCRIPTION:Thinking about stellar populations modeling\nDr. Miguel Cerviñ
 o\n\nThe basis of stellar population modeling was established around 40 ye
 ars ago somehow optimized to the technical facilities and observational da
 ta available at that epoch. Since then, it has been used extensively in as
 tronomy and there has been great improvements relating their associated in
 gredients in concordance with the development of more powerful computation
 al and observational facilities. However, there has been no similar improv
 ements in the understanding about what is actually modeling neither in imp
 rove the modeling itself to include the current technical advances to obta
 in more accurate result in the physical inferences obtained from them. In 
 this talk I present some advances in the subject of stellar population mod
 eling and how to take advantage of current facilities to obtain more robus
 t and accurate inferences from stellar systems at different scales coverin
 g the continuum between fully resolved populations to fully unresolved one
 s in a unified framework.
