Fitxa persona

My research career is marked by strong independence and leadership, supported by competitive national and regional funding. After six years of postdoctoral experience at leading institutions — including the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Stockholm, the Center of Excellence for Particle Physics at the Terascale (CoEPP) and the University of Adelaide (Australia), and Istituto Nazionale de Fisica Nucleare (INFN) and SISSA in Trieste — and research stays at Northwestern University, Max Planck Institute in Heidelbert, Fermilab adn CERN, I established my independent research line in Spain.

In 2020, I was awarded a 4+2-year CIDEGENT Senior Fellowship, followed in 2023 by a Consolidación Investigadora Grant from the Spanish Ministry, and more recently the EsGENT grant from GVA. These awards have enabled me to build a dynamic research group including PhD students and postdoctoral researchers funded through competitive programs.

My research addresses fundamental open questions in particle physics beyond the Standard Model, including the nature of dark matter, the origin of neutrino masses, and the baryon asymmetry of the Universe. I have authored over 40 peer-reviewed publications, 9 conference proceedings, and a widely cited review on neutrino mass models (>400 citations). My work has received more than 1,700 citations (h-index 23). I have delivered over 35 invited talks at international conferences and 18 seminars at leading institutions worldwide, and I regularly serve as a referee for international journals.

Since 2020, I have been affiliated with IFIC (CSIC-UV), and since July 2023 I hold a permanent position as Profesor Permanente Laboral at the University of Valencia.
