I did my PhD with Prof. José M Andreu at the CIB (CSIC, Madrid) studying the structure of tubulin and microtubules. In a first post-doc at the Vienna Biocenter (Austria) I started working on integrins and hemidesmosomes. Next, in the group of Prof. R.C. Liddington initially at the University of Leicester (UK) and later at The Burnham Institute (La Jolla, USA) I studied the structural basis of the interaction of integrins with intracellular partners. I started my own group at the Cancer Research Center (IBMCC, CSIC-USAL) in 2003. I am interested in understanding in structural and mechanistic detail how proteins are regulated and how they interact with each other.
