JESUS PEREIRA LOPEZ

Jesus Pereira Lopez is a Professor at the Department of Quantitative Economics, Faculty of Economic and Business Sciences at the University of Santiago de Compostela. He is affiliated with the Institute of Studies and Development of Galicia (IDEGA) and the GAME Economic Analysis and Modeling Group. His research focuses on input-output analysis, regional economics, and quantitative methods applied to tourism and energy sectors. He earned his PhD in 2006 with a thesis on economic model development using input-output frameworks supervised by Dr. Melchor Fernández Fernández and Dr. Xosé Luis Quiñoa López.

His work bridges economics and nuclear physics, with contributions to both fields. In economics, he specializes in updating input-output tables, analyzing regional economic impacts (e.g., wind energy in Galicia), and modeling tourism effects. In nuclear physics, his studies explore nuclear structure, isospin symmetry, and spectroscopic techniques. His interdisciplinary approach is evident in collaborations across departments and institutions.

Key projects include quantifying the economic impact of Galicia’s wind energy sector (2000–2010), analyzing tourism’s role in regional economies, and developing methodologies for cross-regional input-output comparisons. He has contributed to advancing statistical techniques like FLQ reformulations and bidimensional location quotients.

His publications span over two decades, with recent works addressing nuclear reaction studies, econometric modeling, and regional economic dynamics. Despite no explicitly listed awards, his extensive publication record and institutional affiliations highlight his scholarly impact.
