About Me

I am a researcher at the IDT and assistant lecturer of Legal Theory at the UAB Law School. I have participated in several national and European-funded research projects regarding the organisation of the judiciary (IURISERVICE), enhancing data protection compliance (NEURONA), improving access to multimedia judicial content (E-Sentencias), on Drafting Legislation with Ontology-Based Support (DALOS, from the e-Participation EU call), or in the Legal Case Study of the Semantically Enabled Knowledge Technologies (SEKT VI Framework project), within others. I hold a PhD in Public Law and Legal Philosophy (UAB), with the thesis entitled "Modelling Legal Knowledge through Ontologies. OPJK: the Ontology of Professional Judicial Knowledge".
