Personal profile

Research interests

As a digital humanist and historian, I explore how Generative AI and digital methodologies can foster more inclusive approaches to teaching and learning in Ancient History. My work focuses on AI literacy, cognitive accessibility, and the thoughtful integration of emerging technologies into higher education.

 

My research and teaching span two complementary areas. The first brings together Digital Humanities and inclusive pedagogy, with a particular emphasis on AI literacy and cognitive accessibility for neurodivergent learners in higher education. I serve as Principal Investigator of competitive educational innovation projects, founded the Center for Innovation in Ancient Worlds (CIAW), and am Editor-in-Chief of AI & Antiquity: Journal of Teaching and Technology in Ancient Studies.

 

The second area focuses on the history of the Late Roman Republic, particularly the Social War and the Cinnan regime (87–84 BCE). My research examines political violence, constitutional transformation, and narratives of republican decline, forming the basis of my forthcoming monograph, Cinna’s Rome: Law, Violence and the Emotional Collapse of the Roman Republic (Routledge, 2027).

 

I received my PhD in Ancient History from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona in 2017 and was a JSPS Postdoctoral Fellow at Kyoto University (2018–2020). I am accredited as Professor Agregat (AQU Catalunya) and Profesor Ayudante Doctor (ANECA), and currently teach at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, and ENTI–Universitat de Barcelona.
