Second, I would like to make special mention to my grandparents, Llorenç Sastre and Jeroni Sampol, with whom I will forever be grateful for bringing me up in my infancy, instilling their outlook on life and essential values on me and their undying love for me. Third, I would like to thank my parents for providing me with all the things that a child can ever deserve and for their attention and support in the good times and most important in the bad ones. To my father for his unceasing encouragement to achieve my academic and career goals, and my mother for her dedication and patience during my adolescence.
