Swansea, Reino Unido

As Researcher in the Energy Safety Research Insitute (ESRI) group that belongs to the College of Engineering at Swansea University, U.K, my postdoc was directed to: - Contribution to projects funded by British Petroleum (BP) and NRN Sêr Cymru program, Wales. - Funding: Innovate Uk project, Santander bank staff mobility funding 2016/17 and several travel grants.- Bid writing projects and project management.- Research collaboration: Rice University (USA), Nottingham University (UK), University of Zaragoza (Spain). - Industry collaboration: British Petroleum (BP), Glass Technology Services Ltd (GTS) and Tata Steel. - Esteem: 13 papers published, several conferences and outreach participation.- Characterization: DLS, Z potential, UV-VIS, SEM/EDX, TGA-FTIR, AFM and XRD. - Functionalization, processing and characterization of nanomaterials.

Insitute Of Nanoscience Of Aragon (Ina), Zaragoza, Spain

During more than 5 years I worked as a researcher in the Nanostructured Films and Particles (NFP) group supervised by Professor Dr. J. Santamaría. The NFP group was created in 2007 with the aim of concentrating efforts in the development and application of nanostructured materials, with an emphasis on nanoparticles, nanoporous interfaces and hybrid systems. It belongs to the Nanoscience Institute of Aragon (INA), an interdisciplinary research Institute placed in Spain and focused on R+D in nanoscience and nanotechnology.My PhD was focused in Nanosafety and Nanotechnology. Funded by a competitive Predoctoral Research Fellowship (FPU) by the Spanish Ministry of Education. - Spanish and European projects participation: Nanosost, Nanovalid and Nanosustain. - Funding obtained: FPU fellowship, DGA fellowship and several travel grants.- International research organizations collaboration: CSIC (Spain), Salerno University (Italy), University of Copenhagen (Denmark) and Universidade do Minho (Portugal). - Esteem: 11 papers published, conferences and outreach participation. - Two PhD awards: Extraordinary Award for Doctoral Thesis and Barcelona Award for Best Doctoral Thesis in Occupational Health in Spain.During this time I have acquired skills in:- Exposure, hazard identification and risk assessment activities in the Nanosafety field.- Experimental nanomaterials chemistry, specifically in synthesis, processing, and characterization of nanoparticles.- Several techniques of nanoparticle characterization.- Lab and field aerosol measurement research and experience with aerosol instrumentation e.g. CPC, OPC, SMPS, ELPI and APS among others.- Data collection and statistical analysis.

Copenhague Y Alrededores, Dinamarca

During a 4 month period of predoctoral stay, supervised by Professor Dr. K. Jensen, I gained experience in exposure, hazard identification and risk assessment activities in the Nanosafety field. The results were shown at the International Conference on Safe Production and Use of Nanomaterials, NANOSAFE, (Grenoble, France, 2012) as a contribution to the subject under the title of “Nanomaterial Release from Nanocomposites during Reworking Processes”.The National Research Centre for the Working Environment (NRCWE) is a government research Institute under the Ministry of Employment in Denmark. The mission of the NRCWE is to monitorize, analyze and explore the actual conditions in the working environment related to health, safety and work role functioning.

Centro Nacional De Investigaciones Metalurgicas. Cenim. Madrid

The National Center for Metallurgical Research (CENIM) belongs to the Spanish Council for Scientific Research (CSIC) in the Area of Science and Technology of Materials. During a 3 month period of predoctoral stay, supervised by researcher Dr. M. Alonso, I gained experience in lab and field aerosol measurement research, aerosol instrumentation and data collection and analysis.

Zaragoza, Spain

Project under academic supervision, “Development and optimization of an immunoassay ELISA method to determine Ochratoxine A”, 240 h.During the last year of my Chemistry degree I worked in a project of the Analytical Spectroscopy and Sensors Group (GEAS) to develop an immunoassay ELISA method to determine Ochratoxine A. The GEAS group is an international leader in the field of Analytical Environmental Nanoscience and Nanotechnology with a strong interest in the research and development of nanostructured biosensors with applications in food control and important parameters in clinical analysis.
