Main Research Fields

Since 2008 I am working at Centro de Astrobiología (CAB) as part of the Spanish Virtual Observatory (SVO) group. My main line of work is to scientifically exploit astronomical data bases using innovative approaches only possible in the framework of the Virtual Observatory (VO), with special focus on Gaia data for the study of evolved stars, namely, white dwarfs and Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars.
