I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Statistical Methods at the University of Zaragoza, and a researcher at the Institute for Biocomputation and Physics of Complex Systems (BIFI) .
Alongside these roles, I belong to the Stochastic Models research group recognised by the Government of Aragón (DGA).
Currently, I coordinate the working group Stochastic Processes and Their Applications (Pres&a) of the Spanish Society of Statistics, Operations Research and Data Science (SEIO), together with Prof. Gerardo Sanz Sáiz.
With a PhD in Mathematics and Statistics, my main research line focuses on the probabilistic and statistical properties of record values and record-like observations.
Further collaborations span gastroenterology, oncology, epidemiology, and the social sciences, using advanced statistical modelling and machine-learning methods.

This book grew out of teaching and research needs in health-related programs, but the workflow applies to many fields. It is a step-by-step guide built around jamovi, a user-friendly statistical package that is free and open-source.
A practical introduction to descriptive statistics with real social-science data, explained step by step in Excel. It is aimed mainly at sociology and social work, but it also works well as a first contact with data analysis in other areas.
Research software and tools developed in collaboration with other researchers.
A machine-learning research platform for estimating fat-free mass (FFM) and lean soft tissue (LST) from anthropometric measurements in patients with class II obesity or greater, before bariatric surgery and during postoperative follow-up. It provides single-patient and batch analyses. Developed together with researchers from the GENUD research group.
An assessment tool based on INCLAD scales A and B, combining individual and organisational perspectives on the employment inclusion of people with disabilities. Scale A assesses workers’ performance, autonomy and skills; Scale B examines organisational practices such as recruitment, accessibility and career development. Guided questionnaires are adapted to conventional companies, public administrations and special employment centres, with contextual guidance and results by dimension.
