He graduated in Theoretical Physics in 1990 and obtained his Ph.D. in Physics in 2002 at the UB, following research stays at the City University of New York (with E. Chudnovsky) and at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver (with P.C.E. Stamp), where he developed strong expertise in theoretical models of magnetism.
He has served as an invited professor at the University of Antioquia (Colombia) and the University of South Florida (USA). His research focuses on theoretical and phenomenological models of magnetic materials, maintaining close collaboration with experimental researchers in the field.
Using simulation techniques ranging from Monte Carlo methods to micromagnetics, he has contributed to the study of finite-size and surface effects, dipolar interactions, and exchange bias, primarily in nanoparticle systems. He has authored several highly cited journal articles and book chapters on these topics.
His more recent research interests include curvilinear magnetism, dipolar nanotubes, and magnetic hyperthermia.
