About me

I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Valladolid, Spain. My main research interest is algebraic coding theory. In particular, I am focused on studying applications in quantum error-correction and cryptography. I am also interested in the applications of commutative algebra to coding theory.
Here are some quotes that I like:

My full name is Rodrigo San José Rubio.
