Current Interests:

Interested in advances in research methods, techniques, and software for the Social Sciences, Dr. Gualda has had a particular interest in transdisciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches since the beginning of her career, having conducted research with national and international scientists from other disciplines in the Social Sciences, Humanities, Health Sciences, Engineering and Computing Science. Her most recent scientific contributions are related to the COVID-19 pandemic, computational sociology, big data, social media, conspiracy theories, and online hate speech while maintaining long-standing lines of work such as the sociology of migrations, minorities, and cross-border cooperation (linked to the study of social capital and networks). There is a connection in her research between several of these lines.

She is a member of the Distinguished National (and Andalusian) College of Doctors and Graduates in Political Science and Sociology (since 1990) and a member of the Spanish Federation of Sociology (since 1999, http://www.fes-web.org/), as well as the Andalusian Sociological Association. She is currently a member of the Governing Council and the Research Commission of the University of Huelva and has been a member of the Andalusian Experts Group for developing the Andalusian R&D&I Strategy - EIDIA 2021-2027. She has been an expert evaluator of six-year knowledge transfer periods (CNEAI-ANECA). She has evaluated ANEP projects, R&D projects of the Ministry of Science and Innovation, R&D projects of the BBVA Foundation, projects of the Andalusian Public Foundation Center for Andalusian Studies, and various universities. She has been part of the juries or panels for Ford Apadrina scholarships, Andalusia Migration Awards, Quality Mentions of the Andalusian Sociology Association, and awards for Master's and Doctoral theses of the International University of Andalusia, among others. She has been part of or is part of various editorial boards or scientific committees of scientific journals such as REIS, Revista Española de Investigaciones Sociológicas; RIS-Revista Internacional de Sociología; Migraciones Internacionales del Colegio de la Frontera Norte, UNAM, México; Redes. Revista Hispana para el Análisis de las Redes Sociales; Revista Erebea. Revista de Humanidades y Ciencias Sociales; RIEM. Revista Internacional de Estudios Migratorios; Revista CentrA de Ciencias Sociales, among others.

Between 2002 and 2017, she coordinated several Doctoral Programs, an Official Postgraduate Program, and an Official Master's Program (all three Interuniversity: Huelva, Almería, and Granada) with a Quality Mention. Among her teaching activities, she has supervised 8 doctoral theses, 6 of which obtained the European International Mention, 5 of which were in a doctoral program with a Quality Mention (MCD2006-00469), one of which obtained the Extraordinary Doctoral Award at the UHU and another an award from the Andalusian Statistical Institute. Two other doctoral theses received awards for presented communications derived from the thesis. After completing their doctoral theses, all her students work in the public or private sector in Spain or abroad. One of her last doctoral candidates is enjoying a "Juan de la Cierva" postdoctoral grant. She is currently supervising six theses in the field of Computational Sociology.
