Prof. Dr. Rosa María Martínez-Espinosa holds a Ph.D. in Biology (2003) from the University of Alicante (Spain), where she works as a Full Professor in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. She obtained the Extraordinary Doctorate Award and continued her training as a researcher through postdoctoral stays at
the University of East Anglia, United Kingdom (2004–2008). Her interests lie in the characterization of the molecular biology and biochemistry of extremophilic microorganisms (mainly haloarchaea): studies related to electron transfer between proteins; the purification and characterization of the enzymes using
spectroscopic, molecular biology, and biochemistry techniques; and the production and isolation of biomolecules with potential applications like bioplastics and pigments.
