Currently I am an associate professor at the Department of Computer Sciences and Artificial Intelligence at the University of Granada. I teach computational and artificial intelligence topics to computer science students.  I also teach biomedical informatics to future health professionals.

My research involves the use of Machine Learning techniques to analyze and model scientific and biomedical datasets. My current project aims to use Artificial Intelligence models to analyze students’ learning also known as Learning Analytics.

My first steps in science took me to the field of solar energy research. I did my PhD at the Plataforma Solar de Almería. I’ve worked at the Center for Spatial Technologies And Remote Sensing (CSTARS) – University of California and at ESA’s European Space Research Institute (ESRIN) in Rome.

Driven by my thirst for knowledge my academic wanderings have covered very different topics. I’ve obtained different degrees in Mathematics, Physics, Computer Sciences, Economics and Business Administration.

In my spare time I enjoy reading, travelling and any outdoor activities you can think of. My usual suspects are hiking, alpinism, backcountry skiing and diving.
