During the six months, Mora-Rodriguez audited classes on policing, ethnomethodology, and conversation analysis, and regularly met with faculty who have expertise in these areas, especially with Professors Dr. Kevin Whitehead and Dr. Geoffrey Raymond (his supervisors at UCSB), in order to discuss both his Doctoral research and his plans for future development of his project of policing at borders and to the discipline of conversation analysis.

As part of the research group LISO (Language, Interaction, and Social Organization), Mora-Rodriguez participated in several data sessions, in which the PhD candidate along with other researchers could share their conversation analytic findings to obtain feedback regarding their analyses on social interaction. In particular, Mora-Rodriguez gave a LISO talk in which he presented his work on the overall structural organization of police border checks in the Spain-France border area. 

In addition, Mora-Rodriguez visited the Department of Sociology at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) in order to give a talk on conversation analysis and border security checks, within the framework of the Winter 2022 Events organized by the CAWG (Conversation Analysis Working Group)
