Co-chair of the Environment Committee (FM) | Former director of Institutional Relations | Former SRUK/CERU President | Member of the Science Policy Department
I am an agronomist and the main focus of my research is a process called Biological Nitrogen Fixation, which only certain microbes can carry out to convert atmospheric nitrogen into a biochemically usable form for the plants, acting as biofertilisers.
I am currently working in the Department of Biology at the University of Oxford as a Royal Society University Research Fellow studying the regulatory networks that control the metabolism of these bacteria in order to understand the molecular mechanisms responsible for the establishment of an efficient symbiosis with legume plants.
During my time in Oxford, I have been a lecturer in Biological Sciences at The Queen’s College and participated regularly in several outreach activities. I am actively involved in the Society of Spanish Researchers in the United Kingdom (SRUK/CERU), being a former director of the Oxford constituency, and SRUK/CERU president.
