With a PhD in Political Science and Administration from the University of Santiago de Compostela, I have been researching for six years and teaching for fifteen. I have extensive teaching experience from several universities in Spain, France, and Mexico, and am currently a Doctoral Lecturer at the University of Oviedo. With the recent university reform, I teach Political Science in the Legal and Social Sciences degrees. Because of my research specialization I am involved in courses in Governance (Master\u2019s Degree in Social Policies and Welfare) and in Gender and Human Rights on Society, Family, and Education (Master\u2019s Degree in Teacher Training for Secondary Education [First and Second Cycles] and Professional Training); and in Doctoral Programmes (Organization and Management of Electoral Campaigns, Political and Social Marketing and Analysis and Management of States of Opinion). I have been a member of the RECWOWE \u201cReconciling Work and Welfare in Europe\u201d Network of Excellence of the European Commission (6th Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development) formed by an interdisciplinary team of European researchers and experts. I belong to the Sociology of Food Research Group (Campus of International Excellence) of the University of Oviedo, specifically as coordinator concerning Power, Politics, and Social Movements. I am also a member of the research groups on Democracy and Autonomous Regions (DASP) at Pablo de Olavide University and Gender and Politics at Santiago de Compostela University. I have done research residences at various universities and at the United Nations World Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Studying food governance at the FAO enabled me to engage in an exchange of knowledge and establish the necessary contacts to launch the research project Political Food Consumption: Citizenship, Activism, and Institutions. I am Director of the Chair of Global Food Governance and have been Coordinator of the Alianza contra el Hambre y la Malnutrici\u00f3n de Espa\u00f1a (ACHM-E; Spanish Alliance against Hunger and Malnutrition), sponsored by the FAO, IFAD, WFP, and Bioversity International Organization. My publications grow out of my research, most of which is supported by research funds obtained through public tenders. I have participated in about fifteen projects\/contracts and was the lead researcher in two of them. In recent years, my research has focused on the civic and political behaviour of citizens, the analysis of the socio-economic effects of information and communication (ICT), political elites, political communication, and women\u2019s political participation. I am the author and co-author of several scientific publications, including articles that are placed in the top quartile by the Government Information Quarterly<\/em>. My research work has also been given awarda at a national level, through my co-authorship of the book Ciencia Pol\u00edtica con perspectiva de g\u00e9nero<\/em> (Political Science with a Gender Perspective<\/em>), which won the Mar\u00eda \u00c1ngeles Dur\u00e1n National Award for Scientific Research in 2014. I have also published in Spanish journals such as Pol\u00edtica y Sociedad<\/em>, Comunicaci\u00f3n y Sociedad<\/em> (SCI) and Empiria<\/em>. And finally, I have been part of the management team of the Sociology Department as Secretary.<\/p>\n
