I am a Research Professor of the Spanish Research Council (CSIC). Internationally recognized expert in Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics, my research focuses on the study of hybrid quantum materials and their applications in quantum technologies, including Majorana and Andreev based qubits. In recent years, my scientific impact has been reflected in high impact publications, many of them in collaboration with prestigious international experimental groups. My work has been recognized in several international rankings where I appear as a highly cited scientist. I serve as President of the Condensed Matter Physics Division of the Spanish Royal Society of Physics (RSEF) and as Coordinator the Quantum Physics and Matter program of the State Research Agency of the Spanish Ministry of Science.

Before becoming a permanent scientist at CSIC, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Physics Department at Rutgers State University of New Jersey  (Prof. David Langreth’s group) and at the Quantum Transport group at Delft University of Technology (Prof. Leo Kouwenhoven’s group).
