His overall activity includes research, teaching and management. Concerning research, he’s participated in 3 regional projects, 3 national projects and 1 FP7 European project. His role within those projects was researcher in estimation and control of networked and distributed systems. Moreover, he is currently PI of the Excellence project CyNEDIC funded by AEI/FEDER (38.962€) and of the project LaSSiC for scientific infrastructure funded by Junta de Andalucía (38.966,84€). He is author of more than 60 publications in conferences and journals. In particular, he has published 24 papers in journals included in the JCR, 14 Q1 and 4 D1. The core of his research belongs to the study of distributed systems, in the estimation of internal variables from limited information as well as the control of them. He’s made notable contributions to the field of networked control systems, in what refers to the impact of delays, packet dropouts and asynchronous communication in the stability of the system. He’s been invited to participate in  two Springer books, “Asynchronous Control for Networked Systems” and “Delays and Networked Systems”. His h-index is 15, with 685 citations according to Scholar. His research has been awarded with two Best Paper Award in national conferences and his PhD thesis was awarded the extraordinary prize of doctorate of Universidad de Sevilla. He has supervised one PhD student (A.R. del Nozal, 2019), and, at the moment, he is supervising two other students (C. Ierardi, 2020; S. N-Yo, 2022). He has been visiting researcher in University of Kent (Predoctoral, 12 weeks), TU Eindhoven (Postdoctoral, 1 week), Cork Institute of Technology (Postdoctoral, 6 weeks and 2 weeks), Rosenheim TU of Applied Sciences (Posdoctoral, 1 week) and Universidad de Vigo (Predoctoral, 12 weeks and 2 weeks). During those stays, he’s taught seminars about model- based control, distributed and asynchronous estimation and control. He’s been recognised two research periods (Sexenio) from 2008 to 2013 and from 2014 to 2019. Concerning teaching, he started with laboratory ECTS while he enjoyed an FPU grant in Universidad de Sevilla. Later, he joined Universidad Loyola Andalucía in 2013. The assessment of his teaching activity has been positive for the last 8 years (>6 over 10). He’s taught 9 courses in different engineering bachelor and master degrees. He has coordinated three teaching innovation projects (2.600€) funded by Universidad Loyola Andalucía. Concerning management, he is Secretario   of the Department of Engineering at Universidad Loyola Andalucía from January 2016. He coordinates a term (two semesters) in the Electromechanical Engineer Degree from 2014, in the Industrial Engineer Degree from 2016, in the Mechatronics and Robotics Engineer Degree from 2018, and in Industrial Technologies Degree from 2020. He is member of the  Comisión de Garantía de Calidad  of the degrees from 2014 and of the  Comisión Académica del Programa de Doctorado  from 2020. He has been member of the organizing comitee for the XXXII Jornadas de Automática, in Sevilla 2011. He also coordinates the research group Optimization&Control of Distributed Systems in Universidad Loyola Andalucía, with 15 full-time members (11 PhD researchers).
