PhD at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona in 1992. Post-doc at Rutgers University from 1993 to 1994 with a Fulbright Fellowship. Associated Porfessot at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona since 1995. Visiting professor at Università di Padova(2004-05), Universitat Autónoma de México (2010), NTNU (20011) and Bielefeld University (2011).

Two PhD Thesis advised, and advising a third one. More that 40 research papers written. Research results include proving that artinian modules do not satisfy the Krull-Schmidt Theorem, solving a question posed by Krull in 1934, and a positive solution to the so called Baer splitting problem posed in 1962.
