Teresa Espinosa González

Teresa obtained her degree in Biology from the Complutense University of Madrid, specializing in Biotechnology, and a Master’s degree in Condensed Matter Physics and Biophysics. Her research combines nanotechnology, biotechnology, biochemistry, and biophysics.At the CSIC, she developed a system for enzyme and protein purification and immobilization using functionalized magnetic nanoparticles, with potential applications in biotechnology and pharmaceuticals. At IMDEA Nanociencia, she studied how charged protein networks affect the photophysical behavior of chromophores to better understand photosynthesis through simplified model systems. She also worked at IFIMAC, investigating complex systems using functionalized lipid vesicles.She has expertise in data science, biostatistics, and bioinformatics, which she applies to support her experimental work. Currently at IMDEA Nanociencia, her research focuses on the development of two-dimensional materials through protein immobilization to create functional surfaces with broad scientific applications.
