    Miguel A. Otaduy is an associate professor in the Department of Computer Science at Universidad Rey Juan Carlos (URJCMadrid). His main research areas are physically based computer animation and haptic rendering. He obtained his BS (2000) on electrical engineering from Mondragon University, and MS (2003) and PhD (2004) on computer science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. From 2005 to 2008 he was a research associate at ETH Zurich, and then he joined URJC Madrid. He has published over 50 papers in computer graphics and haptics, and has recently co-chaired the program committees for the ACM SIGGRAPH / Eurographics Symposium on ComputerAnimation (2010) and the Spanish Computer Graphics Conference (2010). He also leads the ERC Starting Grant Animetrics, on measurement-based modeling of complex mechanical phenomena.
