I received my B.Sc. (2009) in Telecommunication Engineering from the University of Cantabria (UNICAN), M.Sc. (2010) and Ph.D. (2013) in Telematics Engineering from University Carlos III of Madrid (UC3M). I worked as a Research Fellow at the Hamilton Institute at National University of Ireland, Maynooth (NUIM) until the end of 2014, when I moved to Trinity College Dublin (TCD) until July 2015. I am currently working as a Principal Research Scientist at NEC Laboratories Europe in Heidelberg, Germany.My research interests lie in the application of fundamental mathematics to real-life computer communications systems, both wired and (especially) wireless; including resource allocation problems, energy efficiency, network coding, and design of network protocols and systems. I particularly enjoy building real prototypes and carrying out experimental performance evaluations of protocols and communication systems.
