His research focuses on encyclopaedic literature and knowledge transmission during the Early Modern Period, particularly through manuscript marginalia analysis in Iberian and New Spain contexts. He explores how annotations in printed books shaped normative knowledge production and intellectual practices.

A key contributor to the PAPIIT projects 'Bibliografía de bibliografías' (2019–2021) and 'La imitatio ecléctica' (2018–2020), his publications examine Spanish Golden Age literature, Neolatin texts, and colonial intellectual networks. Recent articles trace manuscript traditions, marginal reading practices, and transatlantic scholasticism.

While primarily active at UNAM since 2015, he collaborates with international institutions on digital bibliography and manuscript analysis, extending the School of Salamanca's global epistemic community framework to New Spain's missionary scholarship.
