About Me

Get to know me better

As a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at the University of Murcia, Spain, I am driven by a passion for innovation at the intersection of cutting-edge technologies. My academic journey began with a B.Sc. in Information and Communication Technologies, followed by an M.Sc. in New Technologies, where I specialized in information security, networks, and telematics.

I am currently immersed in exploring Federated Learning (FL) within decentralized architectures to unlock its transformative potential across various sectors:

  • 🏥 Healthcare: Enhancing patient care and medical research through secure data sharing.
  • 🏭 Industry 4.0: Optimizing manufacturing processes and predictive maintenance.
  • 📱 Mobile Services: Improving user experiences and delivering personalized services.
  • 🛡️ Military Applications: Strengthening defense systems with advanced machine learning techniques.
  • 🚗 Vehicle Technology: Innovating in autonomous driving and vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication.

My work bridges multiple domains, including:

  • 🤖 Artificial Intelligence (AI): Machine learning, deep learning, and natural language processing.
  • 🔐 Cybersecurity: Secure data exchange and privacy-preserving techniques.
  • 🌐 Internet of Things (IoT): Edge computing, sensor networks, and smart devices.
  • 🧠 Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI): Human-computer interaction and cognitive neuroscience.

I am dedicated to advancing technology to create a more connected, secure, and intelligent world. My mission is to contribute to both theoretical advancements and tangible innovations that drive impactful change.

🚀 Always eager to collaborate, share knowledge, and discuss the latest technological breakthroughs. Let me know if you'd like to know more!
