Briefly about me

    I'm Francisco Cuevas, a young chilean person (1987) living in Valparaíso, Chile. I like work on statistics and develop different tools for data analyisis. My cuerrent research topics are: spatio and spatio-temporal point process and random fields, simulation methods, and computational statistics. I love the music, play guitar, learn lenguages and do some sports.
