Short biography
I have a degree in archaeology from the Autonomous University of Barcelona and a master’s degree in Biological Anthropology from the University of Barcelona. I am currently doing my second year of the doctoral thesis at the latter University in the Faculty of Biology and which centres on dental and cranial morphological analysis in the Papionini tribe through tools such as microtexture or geometric morphometry, both of species fossil current. With this, it is intended to extrapolate and understand how human evolution occurred based on the fact that both groups (Papionini and Homo) faced the same climatic constraints about 2.5 million years ago. I have participated in excavations such as those of Atapuerca, the Abríc Romaní or the Minas de Gavá.
