After a short stay in the M.I.T. working in organometallics, he did post–doctoral studies in the Chemistry Department of The University of Cambridge working in the total synthesis of the complex natural products isobongregic acid and epyriculol.

In 2008, he returned to the ITQ and, after receiving a Distinguished Research permanent position and a Tenured scientist position, he started working independently. Since 2023, he’s a Researcher Scientist.
