Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry in 2000 and PhD in Organic Chemistry in 2006, both degrees obtained at the University of Santiago de Compostela (Spain).

Between 2006 and 2011 I carried out a postdoctoral fellowship at The Scripps Research Institute (San Diego, USA). Upon returning to Spain, I worked at the Biomedical Research Institute between 2012 and 2017 as a Ramón y Cajal researcher.

Since 2018 I have been a research scientist at The Institute for Advanced Chemistry of Catalonia as a member and supervisor of the Chemical Biology group.

My current research interests include chemical synthesis and semisynthesis of proteins, C-terminal peptide/protein alpha-thioesters and selenoesters, and chemical ligation of peptides and proteins.
