Biosketch

After my PhD at UAB I worked for two years at Universitat de les Illes Balears as Associate Professor (2000-2001). I am now a full professor at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and leader of the research group of Dynamical Systems at UAB working mainly in Qualitative Theory of Differential Equations. I supervised six Ph.D. students and several postdoctoral fellows. In 2009 I had the award “I3 Intensification young researchers DIUE-MEC 2007 (2009-2011)”. Coordinator of the Spanish Dynamical Systems Network from 2018. PI of some Spanish research projects from 2014. I have published over 80 papers in leading journals.
