Joan is an associate professor (Titular d’Universitat) in the area of Physics of Condensed Matter since 2021 at the University of the Balearic Islands (UIB). Master (Llicenciat) in Physics in 1998 and also in Chemistry in 2003 at UIB with the special distinction award. Ph.D. in Physics at UIB in 2005. Between 2006 and 2011 he developed his research and teaching activity in Germany: first at the Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies (FIAS, Goethe Universität, Frankfurt am Main) and later at the Institute for Computational Physics (University of Stuttgart). At the end of 2010 he returned to the UIB where he joined the Physics Department as a PhD Assistant Professor while also working as a postdoctoral researcher at IFISC. In 2015, he began a postdoctoral reserch contract sponsored by the local governement of the Balearic Islands (CAIB) to dedicate himself exclusively to research. He rejoined the Physics department in September 2016 as an Interim Contracted Professor, a position he hold till his promotion to associate professor. Click here to know more details about his CV
