Bio
I am currently working as a researcher in the Cogneubotics Lab (Cognitive Systems and Neurorobotics Group) and as an Assistant Professor at the Biomathematics Unit at Universidad Complutense de Madrid. Since 2014, I am also an organizer of the annual UCM-IMI Modelling Weeks.
I completed my PhD in Mathematical Engineering, Statistics, and Operations Research in November 2019, under the supervision of Prof. V.A. Makarov and supported by a Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture, and Sports FPU Grant. Funded by its Predoctoral Mobility Fellowship Program, I carried out two research stays at Leicester University (UK, 2017) and Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (Belgium, 2018).
Master of Science in Engineering Mathematics (UCM, granted by the Manuel Álvarez López Fellowship Program).
Bachelor of Science in Mathematics (UCM, Extraordinary Degree Award and Best Academic Record Award).
Bachelors of Music in Piano Performance and Piano Pedagogy (RCSMM).
