个人简介
Prof. Antonio Ferrer, Ph.D. in Chemistry, held a postdoctoral position in the departments of Physics and Biology at UCSD (1990-1997). In 1998, he started an independent career at UMH in the field pharmaceutical biophysics of ion channel, including drug discovery and development. In 2011, he was named director of the Institute of Molecular and Cellular Biology (IBMC) to develop a program in translational research in biotechnology and biomedicine. In 2018, he promoted the transformation of IBMC into a research Institute centered in Healthcare Biotechnology (IDiBE) that is chairing. Prof. Ferrer has centered his career in a research program on pain and pruritus neurobiology directed to go from the bench to the bedside. He aimed to understanding how sensory ion channels work in terms of their underlying protein structure, and to use this knowledge to develop modulators that can be used as pharmacological and therapeutic tools. Major milestones in his research career are: (i) quality indicators, 151 publications (77% in Q1), h-index 42, 5780 citations, 21 doctoral thesis, 40 competitive projects: (ii) clinical translation, modulator of neuronal exocytosis in phase II clinical trials for chronic post-surgical pain; modulator of RNA stability in phase II clinical trials for the rare disease San Filippo; a modulator of the thermoTRP channel TRPM8 in phase III clinical trials; modulators of the thermoTRP channel TRPV1 in preclinical development for psoriatic pruritus; and, development and marketing of neuromodulators for sensitive skin, particularly for CIPN (Oncapsisens) ; (iii) Technology transfer and exploitation, 20 patents in exploitation, 15 products marketed, and founder of 4 spin-off biotech companies. Currently, his research is focused on understanding basis of the strong sex dimorphism in chronic migraine, as well as in chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). These studies include discovering and developing novel migraine and CIPN therapeutics. Prof. Ferrer complements his research and translational actions, with an active role in R&D managing (AEI, DPT coordinator 2016-2020) and R&D dissemination (editor SEBBM journal) and support through national and international societies (SEBBM, SBE, IASP, BS), and coordinator of the National Ion Channels Network (2014-p).
