He is a foreign member of Lithuanian Academy of Sciences.^[2] Together with Celso Grebogi (University of Aberdeen, UK) he was the editor of the book Recent Progress In Controlling Chaos. He has authored a book in Spanish called Las Matemáticas y la Física del Caos (Mathematics and Physics of Chaos) which is co-authored by Manuel de Leon of the Institute of Mathematical Sciences, CSIC. His active spanish blog greatly helped common public to improve the basic understanding of chaos theory and complexity, and he had written some popular articles in spanish newspapers ^{[3] [4]}. He was a Professor at the University of Valladolid, 1982-1984 and a Professor at the Polytechnic University of Madrid, 1986-1997. Currently Miguel A. F.

He is also the Director of the Department of Physics and the Director of the Research Group on Nonlinear Dynamics, Chaos Theory and Complex Systems. He is an Editorial Board Member of seven international journals: Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation, Discrete and Continuous Dynamical Systems B, Journal of Vibroengineering, Journal of Nonlinear Systems and Applications, International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos, Mathematical Problems in Engineering and Bullettin of the International Center for Mathematics and Mechanics of Complex Systems (Rome). He is an author and co-author of about 200 scientific papers, edited books, a book and over 200 conference papers.
