I recently joined the new Optometry Department at the Arab American University of Palestine-AAUP (Ramallah Campus). I was a member of the Vision and Color Research Group of the University of Alicante for the past 5 years. My main interests are color science and its technologies in both ways, basic scientific research and industrial applications. My main lines of research are focused on the characterization and control of color and visual texture, visual perception, color reproduction, and visualization.
