Hi, I am Isa!
I am a Ramón y Cajal Fellow at the Institute of Molecular Science (University of Valencia), leading a small research group.
Our research is at the interface of the synthesis-properties-function of Metal-Organic Frameworks and combines a fundamental understanding of the effect of synthetic parameters on their self-assembly and resultant properties with applied research in catalysis, drug delivery, gas separation and water treatment.
We are especially curios about the coordination modulation of MOFs and their defect engineering.
Dissemination
We are committed to one of the key targets of Next Generation Europe ‘Science with and for Society’ and we disseminate our project´s results through conferences, publications, and outreaching activities.
Research
Our research encloses fundamental research on the self-assembly of MOFs and their resultant properties with applications related to catalysis, gas separation, drug delivery or water treatment.
Funding
I have obtained a number of fellowships including my current Ramón y Cajal Fellowship and my previous Junior Leader ‘la Caixa’ ,Juan de la Cierva incorporación Fellowship and Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions Individual Fellowship.
The Abánades Lázaro group has been awarded a Spanish National project PID-2023.
We have also obtained a number of small synchrotron grants to unravel the local structure of our materials.
Team
I am currently a Ramón y Cajal Fellow of the Institute of Molecular Science from the University of Valencia. I lead a small research group, if you are interested in working with us, please get in touch!
I am always open to collaborations, working towards a faster advancement of science.
