Javier Sanz Moxo

My passion for the ocean led me to study a bachelor’s degree on marine sciences in the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC) and I´m currently complementing it with a master´s degree on Applied Blue Biotechnology in the Catholic University of Valencia (UCV). Along my studies, I developed a growing interest on Marine Natural Products which took me to form part on the “IslandAp” project in the ITC-Canarias institution. Nowadays, the CIIMAR institution opened their arms hosting me in an internship on the research of appetite reducing compounds from microalgae extracts with Ralph Urbatzka as the team leader.
