Currently a Senior Economist at the Research Department of the Bank of Spain. I previously worked on business cycle research at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the European Central Bank. I also worked as an advisor in the Economic Bureau of the Spanish Prime Minister and as consultant for different international institutions. I was a member of the Scientific Committee of the Euro Area Business Cycle Network. I am a Research Affiliate of the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR) and the co-Editor of Investigaciones Económicas. I have published extensively on applications of non-linear models to the analysis of economic and financial variables over the business cycle. I teach Ph.D. courses at the Universidad Alicante where I supervised several dissertations on these topics.
