CEICS, Campus of International excellence southern catalonia Coordinated by URV · Rovira i Virgili University

I did my PhD at University of Sevilla in the group of Prof. R. Fernández and Prof. J. M. Lassaletta working on enantioselective catalysis using chiral hydrazones as ligands. I started my postdoctoral research work at Stockholm University with Prof. B. Martín-Matute since 2011 until now. My ongoing research is focused on different transformation of allylic alcohols and synthesis of biological active compounds (colaborations with the companies Cambrex KA and AstraZeneca). The Southern Catalonia Nobel Campus would offer me the opportunity to interact and discuss with Nobel Chemistry Laureates about my ongoing research and also with other young researchers. On the other hand, a very close contact with industries and with other aspects of the chemical research can provide me a great open-mindedness to develop my future as a researcher in different areas of the chemical science.
