I am a scientific researcher working on Bioelectrochemical Systems (BES). I am mainly interested on microbial electrochemical technologies.

I got a BS on Biotechnology Engineering, from the National Polytechnic Institute (Mexico), then I graduated as Doctor of Science (Biotechnology/Electrochemistry) at the Mexican Petroleum Institute, after a thesis on biocorrosion. I worked for two and a half years as Research Professor at the Autonomous University of Yucatan, where I kept specializing on bioelectrochemical systems, as well as on the application of electrochemical methods for industrial microbiology applications (e.g. real time monitoring of fermentation products). I worked later as Research Engineer at the National Polytechnic Institute of Toulouse, France, doing postdoctoral research on microbial electrolysis cells. Currently, I am a Research Scientist at VITO.

This website is an effort for sharing my work and that of students and collaborators, who have so valuably contributed to my professional and personal formation.
