My expertise in paleomagnetism derives from my Marie Curie PhD conducted at the CNRS (France) within the framework of the European Research Network AARCH (2003-2006) devoted to high-resolution geomagnetic field reconstructions obtained from archeomagnetic studies. Nowadays, I am also interested on the application of the paleomagnetic and environmental-magnetic techniques to date and identify Holocene climate variability as recorded by continental sediments. Since my thesis, I have been able to conduct my research through funding obtained in individual competitive grants: Juan de la Cierva (Universitat de Barcelona, 2007-2009), JAE-Doc (CSIC, 2009-2013), Marie Curie IEF-2012 (Université de Rennes 1, 2013-2015) and Ramón Cajal (CSIC, 2015 to present) .
