Enrique works at the intersection of philosophy of science and theoretical biology, with a focus on the ontology and metaphysics of computing, anticipatory systems theory, and relational science, studying the role of uncomputability in life and mind. His research engages autopoiesis, (M,R)-Systems, and the limits of the machine metaphor, while also examining technopolitics and accelerationism as frameworks for understanding contemporary (degenerative) transformations in computation and cognition. He is the founder of the Research Group in Philosophy of Computing (Philcomp Group) and its Anticipation and Relational Science Laboratory (ARS Lab). He is also a member of the Association for Computing Machinery, the Mexican Philosophical Association, and the Epigenetics, Anticipation and Computation Consortium, successor to the renowned “Santiago Group” (Chile). He collaborated as a tutor, and now as a permanent member, of the Transdisciplinary Studies Group on Technopolitics and Cybernetics (GETTEC) of the School of Philosophy and Literature at UNAM.
He is currently employed by the National Autonomous University of Mexico as a professor affiliated with the Department of Mathematics and the Undergraduate Program in Computer Science of the School of Sciences of said university. He is also a member of the Laboratory of Evolutionary Theory and History of Science, led by Francisco Vergara-Silva, at the Institute of Biology, and of the 4E Cognition and Cognitive Technologies Group, led by Melina Gastelum-Vargas, at the School of Philosophy and Literature, both at UNAM.
