Short CV
Begoña Puértolas earned her PhD in Chemistry from Universidad de Zaragoza in 2014. From 2014 to 2020 she held a postdoctoral position at ETH Zürich. Currently, she is a Distinguished Researcher at CINBIO. Her research interests focus on the development of chemocatalytic technologies for the valorization of renewable and abundant feedstocks such as CO2 and N2 in chemicals and fuels. This primarily comprises the design of heterogeneous catalysts combining state-of-the-art characterization techniques with catalytic tests and molecular modelling.
