And lastly, I had the pleasure to deliver a short talk about my thesis in the Late Show: Investigación a escena event.

Bit nerve-wracking, but such a lovely opportunity to showcase our work to the public, especially in the very good company of my colleague and friend @sanchoanae.bsky.social.

Some weeks ago I finished a six-month research stay at @ucrchass.bsky.social.

Thanks to my wonderful supervisor Sherryl Vint, everybody at the Department and my fellow PhD friends for making this an unforgettable experience. Also thanks to the Fulbright Commission for making this possible.
