After 4 years in prison as a prisoner of consciousness, Grave was deported to the USA. Luis graduated with a Ph. D. in Electrical Engineering in 2000 at Texas Tech University (TTU), Lubbock, USA. Dr. Luis was a professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at TTU from 2007 up to his retirement in 2022. Currently, Dr. Luis is an Emeritus Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at TTU. He is the author of more than 90 papers published in archival peer-reviewed scientific journals. Grave de Peralta is a pioneer of a novel pedagogical approach to relativistic quantum mechanics, and the implications of this approach for the study of the fundamental consequences that special relativity theory introduces in quantum mechanics.
