Hola!

I am a political scientist and postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Social Sciences at the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M), where I work on the Horizon Europe project EXPRESS2: Specify and Protect the EU Social Contract. I hold a PhD in Social Sciences from UC3M (2025).

My research interests center on unequal political participation, particularly voter turnout, and political inequalities related to socio-economic status and gender. As part of the EXPRESS2 Horizon Project, my current work also examines political and institutional trust.

During my doctoral and postdoctoral work I have held visiting positions at the Humboldt University of Berlin, the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, the Universitat de Barcelona, and the European University Institute.

You can find my work on the publications page, an overview of my teaching, and a full record on my CV. Feel free to get in touch at bcaihuel@clio.uc3m.es.
