I am a Spanish postdoc working on Molecular Evolution and Bioinformatics.


My main interests include:

- How natural selection shapes the variability of genes and genomes.

- How molecular networks evolve, and how the evolution of genes depends on the position they occupy in molecular pathways and networks.

- The origin of eukaryotes.
