  • This is me. I am passionate about learning, understanding, and teaching. By myself and in the company of other colleagues and students
  • This meme, initially intended as an example of modal reasoning in everyday speech and life ;-), perfectly reflects how BEING A PROFESSOR WITHIN THE BOLONIA PROCESS -IN A SPANISH UNIVERSITY- IS: SOMETIMES IMPOSSIBLE, BARELY RESTFUL, ALWAYS CHALLENGING AND, DEFINITELY, NEVER NEVER BORING
                             == And here are some more about our profession ==
  • Pass your students you should

* I like this one particularly (translation: who we are, teachers! What do we want? holidays!!; what for? Writing two papers, reading two books…

and my research interests

Schrödinger's Plates, Inertia worlds and circumstantial modal bases, all in one: “They are both broken and not broken until you open the door”. @ProfFeynman

El verbo que casi hizo naufragar el acuerdo contra el cambio climático

Francia cambió deberá por debería en el capítulo de obligaciones para que EE UU pudiera firmar el pacto de París http://internacional.elpais.com/internacional/2015/12/13/actualidad/1450002024_762685.html

No happiness out of modality
