Currently I'm a post doc Research Assistant at the Computational Biology Group, Computing Laboratory, University of Oxford, under Dr. Vicente Grau. I'm working in the BBSRC-funded project 'Technologies for Efficient 3D Histologically-Detailed Reconstruction of Individual Whole Hearts', directed by Dr. Peter Kohl, Dr. Jürgen Schneider and Prof. David Gavaghan.
I read for a DPhil in Medical Image Processing under Prof. Alison Noble at the Wolfson Medical Vision Laboratory, part of the Robotics Research Group of the Department of Engineering Science at the University of Oxford, and in collaboration with Prof. Harald Becher and Dr. Jon Timperley of the Cardiology Department at the John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford. The title of my dissertation is 'Left ventricle functional analysis in 2D+t contrast echocardiography within an atlas-based deformable template model framework'. While reading for my DPhil, I was a graduate student at Oriel College.
My DPhil research was sponsored by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), Mirada Solutions (now Siemens Molecular Imaging), the Department of Engineering Science at the University of Oxford and Oriel College.
For the last 2 years of my DPhil, I also worked as Development Officer for OSS Watch, the national advisory service for open source in education.
I got my BSc and MSc in Telecommunication Engineering from Universidad Carlos III of Madrid in 2003. I wrote my master thesis on linear transformations for genetic algorithms under supervision of Dr. Sancho Salcedo Sanz and Dr. Carlos Bousoño Calzón of the Department of Signal Theory and Communications.
Although most of my undergraduate studies took place in Madrid, I spent the academic year 1999/2000 at the Institute for Information Processing and Microprocessor Technology at the Johannes Kepler Universität in Linz, Austria, on an Erasmus scholarship, under supervision of Prof. Jörg Mühlbacher.
