Bilbao (1981). I am graduated in Chemistry (2007) and I have two Master Degrees on “Expert in Environment and Sustainability” (2010) and “Rehabilitation, Restoration and integrated management of Built Heritage” (2011). I obtained the Ph.D. degree as an international doctor in 2015. All these studies were obtained in the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU). During my Ph.D. studies I improved my knowledge in the spectroscopic field through internships at the University of Pierre and Marie Curie (Paris, France) in 2013 and University of Chile (Santiago de Chile, Chile) in 2014. Actually, I have a postdoctoral position in the Department of Analytical Chemistry (UPV/EHU). Till May 2016 I take part in 11 research projects (national, international and contracts). I have around 25 research articles in ISI Journals and book chapters, around 20 communications to national and international congresses and I have a personal h-index of 6. My research is focused mainly in the diagnosis of the impact of different kind of environments (direct/diffuse impact of marine environments together/or not with the impact of direct/diffuse urban-industrial activities) on materials belonging to Built Heritage. During my Ph.D. work I developed a self made passive sampler to collect airborne particulate matter in order to evaluate the nature and possible negative influence of the dry depositions that can take place on building materials. Apart from that, I have a wide experience in the use of portable and laboratory spectroscopic techniques (Raman, Infrared, X-ray Fluruorescence, LIBS, Ion Chromatography, SEM-EDX, ICP-MS etc.).
