Jesus Carrera has been Research Professor at CSIC since 2006. Prior to that, he was Professor at the Technical University of Catalonia, where he had been head of the School of Civil Engineering (1992-1994) and Vice-President for Research (1994-1998). His research focuses on Groundwater Hydrology, with emphasis on quantitative modeling and integrative solutions to water related problems. He participates in many advisory committees, including the National Water Council or the plenary of National Research Evaluation Commission. In the process, he directed 30 doctoral theses, and supervised 20 postdoctoral scientists; he published some 200 journal papers (some 16 kcites, IH of 62, according to GS). He has received numerous awards (e.g., Spanish Academy of Sciences Medal, EGU’s Darcy Medal, PSIPW Prize for Water. He is member of Academia Europa and the US National Academy of Engineering .
