Biography
​Gabriel obtained his Ph.D. in Physics at the Complutense University of Madrid in 2015 under the supervision of professors María Varela and Jacobo Santamaría. During this period he also carried out part of his research at the STEM group at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. He then joined the Crystal Interface Laboratory at the University of Tokyo as a postdoctoral researcher from 2015 to 2017. In 2017, he obtained a Juan de la Cierva postdoctoral fellowship and joined the 2D Foundry group at the Spanish National Research Council in the Institute of Materials Science of Madrid. He is now a postdoctoral researcher in the Eva Olsson Group.
