I have been part of multiple heterogeneous research teams in academia, major industry partners and the public sector within the EU, working on a variety of research topics and contributing to project deliverables. By July 2026 I have attracted 264K € in personal grants, most of which is under competitive calls funded by the European Commission and the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities. I have also been exposed to student supervision and teaching.
