A little late to the party but here's my #introduction to #gischat.
I have a bachelor in physics and a PhD in Geospatial Information Science.
I have some sort of a mixed bag of interests:
I do a lot of work on spatial analysis of crime, a little on the classical econometrical side
I also work on algorithms to build areal support from spatio-temporal point databases
I also have a background in urban pollution modeling which is recently taking a front seat in my research agenda
I forgot the most important part of my work!!!
I chair the graduate studies program at CentroGeo (https://www.centrogeo.org.mx/) where we have masthers and PhD programs on Geospatial Information Sciences and Spatial Planning
