(Seville, 1959)
Bioinformatician. He is currently the director of the Structural and Computational Biology program at the National Cancer Research Center (CNIO) and works at the National Institute of Bioinformatics, CNB (CSIC). Its protein design research group guides its efforts to solve key biological problems through the development of new methods and computational resources useful for biologists, prediction of functional characteristics of proteins derived from the analysis of families and structures and in the area of extraction of information from biological texts, the development of methods and, most importantly, in the development of a new widely used open system (iHOP). Likewise, it collaborates in educational and interactive projects that enhance ACTS (Art-Science_Technology_Society) interaction, such as the GNOM project for the exploration of genetic networks.
