Ezequiel Pérez-inestrosa Villatoro

Biography

Ezequiel Perez-Inestrosa is Full Professor of Organic Chemistry at the University of Málaga. He studied chemistry at the University of Granada (Spain) and completed his PhD Thesis at the University of Malaga (Spain). After a short period at the industry, he performed postdoctoral stays at the Research and Development Centre (University of Puerto Rico, 1996) and the Laboratoire de Chimie Organique et Organometallique (Université Bordeaux-1, 1997-1998), and joined the University of Málaga where alternate his educational and research work. His research group also belongs to the Spanish Red de Investigación de Reacciones Adversas a Alérgenos y Fármacos RIRAAF, and has been accepted as a Consolidated Group in the recently created Instituto de Investigación Biomédica de Málaga IBIMA. His research is focused on the development of new molecular and supramolecular chemical entities, at nano- and micro-scale, and their applications in biological medias of medical interest. Particular attention on the design and engineering at molecular level of nanostructured organic compounds and photonic devices is attained. Our research deals on the frontiers of nano-chemistry and biomedicine. The main interest is to improve existing diagnostic and therapies, by employing novel nanomaterials - dendrimers.

Research Interest

Nanomedicine and Biotechnology (BIONAND) within the Area of Nanodiagnostics, leading the Biomimetic Dendrimers and Photonic Laboratory in the Nanodiagnostics Area.
