Research lines: Semiconductor lasers: experiments and
simulations of nonlinear dynamics of semiconductor lasers under optical
feedback, current modulation, optical injection; extreme optical pulses,
photonic neurons, optical spikes, speckle, spatial and temporal coherence. Complex systems and data analysis:
complex networks, network inference, network reconstruction, ordinal
analysis, biomedical data analysis, climate data analysis, machine learning,
outlier detection, extreme events, critical transitions, tipping points,
early warning indicators. Neuronal dynamics: neuron models,
neural coding, synchronization, stochastic processes, time delays. You can find information about the research group here;
PhD theses here;
talks with slides here; organized
scientific events here;
press articles and videos here. Funding: Catalan Agency for Management of
University and Research Grants (AGAUR 2021 SGR 00606); Catalan Institution
for Research and Advanced Studies (ICREA ACADEMIA); European Union (Doctoral
Network “Be-light”, 101119924) and European Office of Aerospace Research and
Development (EOARD FA8655-24-1-7022). You can find information about
ongoing projects here
and finished projects here. Teaching: I teach in the School
of Industrial, Aerospace and Audiovisual Engineering of Terrassa (ESEIAAT), in the School of Mathematics and Statistics (FME) and in the Barcelona Master in Photonics.
I also regularly impart lectures in PhD schools. The slides in English are available
here.
Editorial activity: I am Section Editor of Chaos,
Solitons & Fractals (Elsevier), Topical Editor of Optics Letters (Optica), and Editor of
Scientific Reports (Nature). Book: Networks
in Climate co-authored with H. A. Dijkstra, E. Hernandez-Garcia
and M. Barreiro (Cambridge University Press 2019, ISBN: 9781316275757). Biography: I received the
bachelor 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
was a postdoctoral researcher at University of Nice, at Bangor University and
at Universitat de les Illes Balears (2000-2002). 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). I am fellow of the OPTICA society (formerly
OSA, you can find my fellow
profile here). Contact
me: My office and the semiconductor laser lab are located in
Gaia Building, UPC Campus Terrassa. Address: Rambla St. Nebridi 22, Terrassa 08222,
