Fernando Quevedo Rodríguez (born 12 May 1956 in San José, Costa Rica) is a Guatemalan physicist[1] and obtained his early education in Guatemala. He was the director of the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) between October 2009 and November 2019.[2][3] With Anamaría Font, Luis E. Ibáñez, and Dieter Lüst, he proposed a weak-strong duality conjecture which introduced the concept of S-duality in 1990.[4][5]
