He joined the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana (UAM) in 1979 to build the sleep and behavior laboratory in the Department of Biology of Reproduction. His first international publications referred to the impact of sleep deprivation on the hormonal regulation of sexual behavior. In 1988, he did a research stay at the University of California in San Diego as an Associate Researcher until 1990, with the topic of Cholinergic regulation of REM sleep. He has twice been the winner of the Research Award in the UAM, and its research area has gained the prize to the areas of research twice.

He has worked as head of the Department of Biology of Reproduction. He has been appointed as a distinguished teacher of the UAM and a rector of the Iztapalapa Campus of the UAM. His production in indexed journals with the International Editorial Committee has more than 100 papers, with several citations of approximately 2100 for 2020.
