Sergio obtained his B.Sc. in Telecommunication at Universidad de Alicante (Spain) in 2015. Under a research internship, he worked on the detection of accelerated corrosion in concrete using non-linear based-ultrasound techniques. In 2016, he received a M.Sc. in Acoustic engineering at Universitat Politècnica de València (Spain). In 2021, he received his Ph.D. at Universitat Politècnica de València working on focused ultrasound modeling and hologram generation for therapeutic transcranial ultrasound, funded by an FPI grant of the Generalitat Valenciana. He was a visiting researcher at Université du Mans (France), and a visiting researcher at Ultrasound Elasticity Imaging Laboratory (UEIL) at Columbia University in New York (USA). Currently, he is a Postdoctoral Research Scientist at UEIL working on acoustic holograms for BBB opening and neuromodulation applications. Since 2017, he has supervised 1 MSc dissertation, published 5 journal papers, participated with more than 25 works in conferences, and he holds 1 patent.
