Biography

Degree in Food Science and Technology and PhD from the University of Castilla-La Mancha, carried out her doctoral thesis investigating the autochthonous microbiota that Participates in the fermentation of the Aubergine of Almagro for the selection of a crop initiator. Since January 2005 she has been part of the Teaching and Research Staff of the University of Castilla-La Mancha in the Faculty of Environmental Sciences and Biochemistry of Toledo. She has participated in numerous research projects both in National and regional studies focused on the study of the lactic microbiota involved in the Fermentation of foods of regional interest such as wine, pickles or cheese D.O Manchego. And the result of these investigations are more than 25 scientific publications in Journals of renowned prestige and several contributions to congresses of national and international.
