TEACHING
Although CSIC researchers have no teaching obligations, I have taught on several occasions at universities and international schools:
​​
-
2020-2021: Teaching Assistant in quantum mechanics, electromagnetism, and mathematics of waves and fields (first semester), and statistical physics, solid state physics, and wave optics (second semester) for second-year undergraduate students in Physics at the University of Manchester, UK.
-
9-13 Dec 2019: Invited Lecturer on CMB polarization and spectral distortions at the XIII Tonale Winter School of Cosmology, Passo del Tonale, Italy.
Lecture 1 (slides): CMB, foregrounds, and state-of-the-art from Planck
Lecture 2 (slides): Component separation methods
Lecture 3 (slides): CMB B-mode polarization
Lecture 4 (slides): CMB spectral distortions
