He dirigido tesis de maestría y doctorado sobre política de cuidados para adultos mayores en Cuba y México, mercado laboral y movilidad social de jóvenes en Bolivia y Chile, política educativa en Cuba y México, política migratoria en México y economía política del sector energético en países latinoamericanos, entre otros temas.

De manera particular, me interesa trabajar con estudiantes que busquen desarrollar estudios comparados sobre las causas, el desarrollo y los efectos de políticas públicas.
