Bio
I had my first contact with research in 1997 when I obtained a scholarship from the Ministry of Education and Sciences to work part-time on a project (1 Q1 paper) during the last three years of my undergraduate biology degree (1994-99, Mark A, Highest 10%). After graduate I was awarded with a PhD fellowship from the Spanish Ministry of Science (FPI, 2000-2004) to conduct my PhD at the EEZ-CSIC. At the group led by Prof. Sanjuán I studied the molecular processes involved in the bacterial conjugation of symbiotic elements in rhizobia (7 articles, 4 Q1). Jointly I obtained my research sufficiency diploma at the UGR (Mark: A). During the accomplishment of the PhD I was also involved in different research grants related to the interaction rhizobia-legume and in 2004 I was awarded with a fellowship (Postgraduate-I3P, CSIC) to work in collaboration with a fertiliser agriculture company (NBT Biotechnics) to assess the efficiency of rhizobial inoculants.
After the successful accomplishment of my PhD (Summa Cum Laude, October 2004, Extraordinary Doctorate Award), I was awarded with a postdoctoral fellowship (2005-07, IFIMAV) to continue my studies with the rhizobial relaxases at the University of Cantabria. At Prof. de la Cruz lab, I characterised for the first time the relaxase of a symbiotic plasmid. Additionally, I started a new project (FP6-LIFESCIHEALTH, 1.795.000€) to identify chromosomal bacterial genes involved in TGH (2 first author Q1 articles).
In 2007 I was awarded with the prestigious EMBO long-term fellowship (2 years) to continue my training in the molecular and genetic processes involved in the phytopathogenesis mediated by Erwinias (Pectobacterium), supervised by Prof. George Salmond at the University of Cambridge (UK) (2 first author articles and 1 book chapter).
After this second postdoctoral stage I returned to the group led by Prof. Juan Sanjuán (EEZ-CSIC) thanks to obtaining a Doctor return contract (JAE-DOC, CSIC), where I established a completely novel line of research in order to study the role of the Second Messenger c-di-GMP in the Plant-bacteria Interactions, with both beneficial and pathogenic bacteria. This new research has been strongly supported by different research grants (Junta de Andalucía 2010 and National Grants 2011, 2014 y 2017, > 1.200.000€), first author publications in prestigious scientific journals including PNAS, publications as corresponding author and fruitful national and international collaborations. To the same extent, it is providing very promising results in translational research as evidence the 2 published patents in hyperproduction of bacterial biopolymers. The research community of this field have attested my value contributions awarding me with the prize Antonio Palomares obtained in 2015. AP awards young researchers with outstanding contributions to the research field: beneficial plant-bacteria interactions.
In 2015 I have led my first project as PI entitled: ‘Novel biopolymers activated by c-di-GMP in bacteria’, carried out at the Univ. of Kassel (Germany) and the EEZ and supported by Marie Curie Mobility Action grant (JA and the FP7-EU, 153.311€). This project was continued thanks to a German Government fellowship (DAAD, 3 months) for another research stay at prestigious Technical University of Munich (TUM).
In September 2019 I became a Lecture at the Microbiology department at University of Granada (Profesor Ayudante Doctor), teaching different subjects at pre- and postgraduate level (> 480 hours) in different degrees belonging to biomedical sciences. Likewise, I have supervised postgraduate and master dissertations as well as 2 PhD. I have been recognised as ‘Profesor Contratado Doctor’ by the ANECA and I own the certification I3. I am a membership of different international committees use to act as reviewer for different journals as well as reviewer of research grants of different funding bodies and I am currently an editor of Frontiers in Microbiology.
Since November 2021, I belong to the permanent staff of CSIC (Científico Titular) working in the Department of microbiology and symbiotic systems of the Estación Experimental del Zaidín research centre (EEZ) integrated into the “Plant-Bacteria Interactions” research group (Bio-180). I have a positive evaluation of 3 six-year research sections from ANECA (sexenios: 2000-2006,2007-2012,2013-2019) and 2 five-years research sections from MICINN (quinquenios: 2001-04-20010 & 2011-2015).
