Líneas de investigación: 
  1. Quantum Cognition: I am currently investigating systematic deviations from the principles of "classical-probabilistic-based-rationality" observed in psychological experiments, and exploring how the framework of quantum theory could provide an alternative framework for the modeling of cognitive phenomena which explain such deviations.
  2. Chemical Organization Theory: I am interested on extending this theory so it becomes an appropriate formal language for the representation and modeling of general systems. Also, I am interested on modeling particular cases where systemic thinking is required but traditional paradigms (such as netoworks or agent based modeling) are not useful.
