Short Biography

Nowadays I work as a Professor at the University of A Coruña, Spain. I received the B.S. and M.S. degree in Physics from the University of Santiago de Compostela, Spain, in 2001, and a PhD in Computer Science from the University of A Coruña in 2003. I am a member of the Integrated Group for Engineering Research at the University of A Coruña. My current research activities are related to evolutionary algorithms applied to artificial neural networks, multiagent systems and robotics.
