After defending his thesis in December 2016, he worked at the Dutch National Institute for Subatomic Physics (NIKHEF, Amsterdam) and at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN, Geneva), later returning to USC as a Mar\u00eda Zambrano research fellow.\u200b<\/p>\n
Now appointed as a Ram\u00f3n y Cajal researcher at the University of A Coru\u00f1a, his research focuses on measurements related to the Higgs boson, as well as on the direct search for dark matter and potential new physics candidates within the LHCb experiment at CERN, where he has been a member since 2012.\u200b[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_mask_bg=”” row_arrow=”” css=”.vc_custom_1494861130580{background-color: #f4f4f4 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”Project” font_container=”tag:h3|font_size:35px|text_align:left|line_height:1″ google_fonts=”font_family:Lato%3A100%2C100italic%2C300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic%2C900%2C900italic|font_style:300%20light%20regular%3A300%3Anormal” cms_custom_headding_type=”heading-borderleft-textbold” css=”.vc_custom_1680020753269{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]He has coordinated several working groups both within and outside LHCb, in areas of particle physics and computational tasks, and currently serves as the Deputy Physics Coordinator of a new detector to be built at CERN in the coming years, CODEX-b, dedicated to the search for very long-lived particles. Since October 2025, he has also been the Speaker Panel Chair of the LHCb experiment, responsible for supervising and coordinating all public presentations of the experiment\u2019s results, both at major conferences and international workshops.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”35px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
