David Soriano obtained a BSc. in Chemistry from the University of Alicante where he defended his thesis about spin phenomena in Graphene-based materials. In 2011, he joins the group of Stephan Roche at ICN2 (Barcelona) to explore spin and spin-orbit proximity effects in graphene heterostructures. In 2017, he obtained a Marie-Curie COFUND fellowship to study the magnetic properties of 2D ferromagnets (CrI3) in the group of Joaquín Fernández Rossier at INL (Portugal). One year later, he was awarded a Marie Curie IF from the European Commission to study correlation effects in 2D magnets in the group of Mikhail Katsnelson at Radboud University (Netherlands). In 2021, he worked as a senior postdoc in the group of Gianluca Fiori in the University of Pisa where he worked on the design of ultra-low power electronic based on magnetic van der Waals heterostructures.

Since 2022, David Soriano works in the Applied Physics department at University of Alicante where he is Distinguished Researcher from the Gen-T programme (Generalitat Valenciana - Spain). Here, he leads a research group (https://www.spinwaals.com) focused on understanding the electronic properties of magnetic van der Waals heterostructures and their potential applications in spintronics and valleytronics.
