His research interests center around Knowledge Graphs, ontologies, and their application in regulatory compliance such as GDPR. He employs advanced techniques like GraphRAG to extract and structure knowledge from legal documents, bridging AI and data governance.

He supervises academic theses and has been consistently offering the Knowledge Graphs Seminar at the university level since 2023, indicating strong academic engagement. Though no publications are directly attributed to him in the provided text, his work appears aligned with ongoing projects in explainable AI and semantic data integration.

He advises at least one thesis student on ontology-guided approaches for GDPR analysis. There is no mention of external grants, but his position at Fraunhofer suggests involvement in applied research projects.

Diego is part of a larger research ecosystem linked with RWTH Aachen University, as evidenced by the institutional context and infrastructure.
