I got my Philosophy Degree with Honours at the University of Deusto (Spain) and received my Ph.D. from University of the Basque Country in 1999. My doctoral dissertation was a defence of singular causation within the framework of trope theory. In 2000-2002 I got a postdoctoral grant by the Basque Government to visit the Philosophy Department at Rutgers University where I became interested on questions concerning identity and general metaphysics. I came back to Spain as a Ram\u00f3n y Cajal Researcher (tenure track) from 2002 to 2007 at the University of Granada, where I teach and study at its Philosophy Department since then.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>

I mainly work in Metaphysics: categories and modal knowledge. In particular, I have written on causation, properties, relations, identity, and personal identity. I am a trope theorist, and a singularist concerning causation. I defend rational intuition for categorial knowledge, and a form of narrative approach to personal identity. I also love to study the History of Philosophy. From January 2017 to September 2021, I was General Editor of Theoria (Spain).<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>
