and master degrees in physics from Universidad de la República, Uruguay,
where I was Assistant and Associate Professor (1989-2004). I received the PhD
degree in physics from Bryn Mawr College (USA) in 1999. I joined Universitat
Politecnica de Catalunya in 2004 as a Ramon and Cajal researcher, became
Associate Professor in 2009 and Professor (Catedratica) in 2018. You can find
here my CV. Awards: I received three ICREA ACADEMIA
awards (you can find my ICREA profile here).
