He completed his undergraduate studies in Information and Documentation in 2017 and his Master's in Data Science and Computer Engineering in 2018, both at UGR. His doctoral research, which he completed in 2023, focused on the integration of big data techniques with scientometrics and social media analysis.

His research interests are centered on the science-society relationship and developing comprehensive new approaches to research evaluation. He has extensive experience in evaluative bibliometrics and, in recent years, has contributed to the development of the new narrative bibliometrics. During his PhD studies, he specialized in scientometrics and the study of social media from a big data perspective, with a particular focus on platforms such as Wikipedia and X (formerly Twitter). Additionally, he is interested in and conducts research on artificial intelligence (AI), exploring its applications in research, education, and other aspects related to the academic realm. This interdisciplinary approach allows him to contribute to understanding how science is disseminated and perceived in digital environments, leveraging advanced data analytics and AI technologies.
