Hi, welcome to my website!

My main research interest is in computational solid mechanics and advanced material modelling. I'm particularly keen on working in biomechanics and mechanobiology applications within this field.

I'm a Serra Húnter Associate Professor at the Aerospace Engineering group in the Department of Physics of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) and an Assistant Research Professor at the CAMMS group in the International Centre for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE). 

I balance my teaching duties in Aeroplane Design with my ongoing research projects on modelling self-healing polymers and biocomposites for aerospace applications. I'm still participating in projects derived from my postdocs in brain mechanics and the mechanobiology of limb formation.
