I am currently a researcher at CREAF and a full professor at Ecology Unit of the Autonomous University of Barcelona and a researcher at CREAF.

Much of my research is in the field of applied ecology. One of the main focuses of my research is the biology of conservation. I am currently collaborating with management teams in different natural areas of Catalonia with the aim of improving the conservation of endangered or protected species of flora and fauna.

I investigate the effects of different types of forest management and disturbances such as drought and fires on the composition, structure and functioning of forest ecosystems. I also coordinate and participate in different types of initiatives related to education for gender equality, transdisciplinarity, social and environmental justice, sustainability, science, green education and nonviolent conflict resolution.
