Doctor en Química por la Universitat de València, en la especialidad de Química Teórica y Computacional. Su área de investigación es la fotofísica y fotoquímica de compuestos de interés biológico y farmacéutico, mecanismos de reacciones fotoquímicas y propiedades optoelectrónicas de materiales orgánicos conductores.

 

Ha sido investigador postdoctoral en la Universitat de Barcelona (2009-2010) e investigador Marie Curie en el Imperial College London (2010-2012). Ha sido galardonado con el Premio al Mejor Artículo de Investigación en las publicaciones de la Real Sociedad Española de Física (Premios de Física RSEF-Fundación BBVA 2014).

 

En cuanto a la docencia, ha impartido clase de diferentes asignaturas de Química Física, Química General, Física General, Biofísica, Bioquímica e Introducción a la Investigación, y también ha sido director de varios TFMs y TFGs, en la Universitat de València, Imperial College London, Universidad Isabel I y, desde 2015, en la Universidad Europea de Valencia. 

​

También se ha interesado por la investigación en innovación educativa, en concreto en el uso de laboratorios virtuales en docencia de Física y Química, gamificación, herramientas TAC y e-learning.

​

I am a chemist and PhD in Theoretical Chemistry from Universidad de Valencia (Spain). I have collaborated in several projects about molecular spectroscopy, photophysics, photochemistry, photobiology and optoelectronics. I worked as a postdoc researcher at the Universidad de Barcelona (2009-2010) and I worked as a Marie Curie fellow at Imperial College London (2010-2012).

 

Since 2015 I am an assistant professor at the Universidad Europea de Valencia. Together with my research activity I have been involved in many teaching duties.

 

Previous research interests were the quantum chemistry of drugs used in photochemotherapy, the electronic properties of DNA and RNA nucleobases, the electronic properties of molecules used in OLED devices, the reaction mechanisms of organic photochemical reactions and the photophysics of metal complexes used in LEC technology and other compounds used in solar cells

 

My current research is focused on educational innovation, ICT tools, virtual labs, gamification, and e-learning.

 

Initially, I worked as a Ph.D. student (2004-2008) and research fellow (2008) in the QCEXVAL group (Quantum Chemistry of the Excited State) at the Molecular Science Institute of the University of Valencia (Spain). I was awarded with a FPU grant (Ministry of Education and Culture of Spain: 2004-2008). My PhD thesis (2009) was focused in quantum chemistry of biomolecules, specifically drugs which are used in photochemotherapy.

​

Later I was a post-doc researcher in University of Barcelona (Physical Chemistry Department/Molecular Materials Structure Group) for 6 months (November 2009-April 2010). 

​

Next I was awarded with a Marie Curie Grant (September 2010- September 2012) at Imperial College London (Department of Chemistry). I studied the role of conical intersection seams in photochemical systems (ethene+ethene, ethene+benzene).

 

Finally, I worked as a researcher at University of Valencia (Molecular Science Institute/Quantum Chemistry of Molecular Materials Group) in the field of optoelectronics, studying the photophysics of metal complexes used in LEC technology and other compounds used in solar cells.
