I am a physicist with a PhD in biomedicine, and currently a Beatriu de Pinós fellow at the ComplexSystems@IN3 team (UOC, Barcelona). I study complex ecological systems, where many interacting components, from cells to species, give rise to emergent system-level properties.
I use statistical physics and empirical microbial data to study how community-level simplicity and predictability can arise from the complexity of hundreds of interacting species, and how these tools may help us better understand the microbiome–immune–cancer ecosystem. I have previously worked on modeling cancer ecology and evolution (PhD, UPF Barcelona, 2018-2021) and on understanding multistability and emergent properties in species-rich ecological communities (Ramón Areces and MSCA fellow, ISEM Montpellier, 2022-2026).
