PhD in Mathematics obtained at UPC

Biosketch

I obtained my PhD in Applied Mathematics at UPC, when I worked on theoretical and computational projects in dynamical systems. During my PhD. studies I did research stays at the MBI at Ohio State University (Prof David Terman) and the Department of Mathematics at UT Austin (Prof. Rafael de la Llave). I was a postdoctoral fellow,first at CRM,and later for 3.5 yearsat the CNS and Courant Institute (NYU)under the mentorship of John Rinzel, when I enhanced my training in mathematical neuroscience by designing models in contact with experimentalists. Since December 2012 I am a research fellow at UPC (Juan de la Cierva and Ramon y Cajal), enhancing the research line of computational neuroscience in the Dynamical Systems group.
