I got my physics bachelor and my Phd at Univ Comp Madrid and did postdoc at Orsay and Seattle to become associate professor at Univ Aut Barcelona and full professor at the Univ Santiago de Compostela where I start the particle Physics Departement. I spent few months as associate research at Rutherford Lab, Argonne and CERN. I was the first Dean of Physics Faculty of USC becoming Rector during the period 1984-1990. Supervisor of several PhD, including well known researchers of the field (A.V.Ramallo, N.Armesto, E.G.Ferreiro, C.A.Salgado, L.Cunqueiro, C.Andres) I was member of the council that did a pioneer spanish planification of high energy physics in 1983, and spanish scientific delegate at CERN(2008-2012). I am honorary doctorate degree of the Universidade Politécnica de Lisboa(2011) and of the University of Sant Petersburg(2013) I am ¨Cavalier des palmes academiques¨ honor given by french gobernement. I got the golden medal of the spanish physics sociaty and the prize of research of Galicia(2007) and of outreach of Galicia(2004).My main interest is the strong interactions and the theory that describes it, QCD. I work on phenomenology of the hadron and nuclei collisions, in particular the strings stretched between the projectile and target and their interactions. String percolation, rapidity long range correlations, particle thermalization, entanglement between the soft and hard partons, QCD phase transitions, are topics adreesed in our research
