For over ten years I have been a Lecturer in the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Since 2007, Lecturer in Information and Communication Sciences Faculty at the UOC.: Thesis: Synthesis and structural characterization of complexes of Ag (I) with thiourea type ligands or Thioamide. Study of specialized electronic information sources in chemistry. Research stay at Loughborough University. I live in Gràcia.

Research


Kimo member of the UOC. My interests are based on information sources and their evolution in the Internet, including electronic journals, open access and legal aspects of digital information. Within Kimo, my research focus are the changes in the way research is done: e-research, Big Science, megajournals, Open Data, and other aspects related to how science and research are changing the way they behave.
