I have dedicated my career to understanding aging and developing therapies to prevent, delay, and reverse aging-related diseases. In 2006, I obtained my PhD in Biology from Complutense University of Madrid, and received additional training in Poland and the United States. After my PhD, I moved to Finland for a postdoc supported by a long-term EMBO fellowship. In 2010, I was awarded a Starting Grant from the European Research Council to establish my laboratory and was nominated as a Research Academy Fellow by the Finnish Academy. In 2014, I was recruited by Newcastle University, where I was promoted to full Professor in 2019. Additionally, in 2018, I received a Senior Research Fellowship from the Wellcome Trust. I joined the University of Glasgow in 2020 as a Lord Kelvin/Adam Smith Professor. My laboratory, funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council and Wellcome, focuses on understanding the information flows from mitochondria to the rest of the cell and how mitochondrial signals contribute to cellular homeostasis, particularly in the context of aging.
