Research Interests:
My current research interests concern the development of statistical models inspired by existing social problems as well as the implementation of social standards through data analysis. In particular, my scientific work includes survival analysis models, stochastic Markovian processes, multivariable analysis, data mining techniques, growth models, quantitative research methodology, and their application to social data. Current applications relate to education and employment data, mainly from the Higher Education Area. Specifically, issues are discussed regarding the distribution of the duration of university studies and the factors involved, the development process of student performance during studies, curricula, graduates' outputs in the labor market and the characteristics of their work (focusing mainly on the issues of overeducation and job and degree satisfaction), and lastly the overtime evolution process of gender participation in education.
