Veterinary and PhD in environmental microbiology and biotechnology. His research is focused on the study of human and animal viruses present in the environment and its potential application as indicators of fecal pollution from human and/or animal origin (microbial source tracking).He also develops new molecular methods to detect and quantify animal viruses.
HUMAN VIRUS IN FECALLY CONTAMINATED WATER, THE VIROME OF URBAN SEWAGE
New METAgenomics and molecular based tools for european scale identification and control of emergent microbial contaminants in irrigation WATER.
Irrigation water may be the source of microbiological contamination of fresh vegetables and has been associated to important food-borne epidemics of gastroenteritis, acute hepatitis and other important diseases.
