Bio
I obtained my PhD degree in Environmental Biotechnology in 2002, at the Wageningen University (The Netherlands). I then started a post-doc at the Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute (The Netherlands), where I was trained as a microbial ecologist and mycologist. In 2005 I was awarded with an INIA grant (from the Spanish Government, aimed at hiring international young talent) and I started to work as a researcher at the Institute of Agrifood Research and Technology (IRTA). There I was responsible for setting and managing a new Environmental Microbiology Laboratory, facility that was conveniently equipped with molecular biology tools, aimed to serve the next-sitting Process and Chemical Engineers in understanding biotechnology beyond the “black box” approach. Since 2012, I have been appointed as Director of the Program of Integral Management of Organic Waste (GIRO – IRTA). The valorization of agrifood and urban wastes and minimizing environmental pollution are the focuses of my research group. I have had the chance to be active in academic teaching as well, and I have supervised a growing number of undergraduate and PhD students. I have been qualified as an Associate University Professor by the Agency for Quality Assurance in the Catalan University System (AQU), and I lectured in diverse MSc programs and specialized courses in highly rated universities in and out of Spain. Since early on my scientific career, my research has primarily been related to two main topics: the assimilative biodegradation of hydrocarbons by fungi, and the anaerobic digestion of complex difficult-to-treat organic wastes. I have looked into these processes from the perspective of understanding the underlying microbial biodiversity and interactions, but also in pursuing new biotechnological applications.
