Carolina Simó is a Tenured Researcher at the National Research Council of Spain (CSIC) in Madrid, she develops her scientific activities in the Laboratory of Foodomics. Her running research lines include: i) Method development using electrophoretic/chromatographic techniques coupled to mass spectrometry for Proteomics and Metabolomics. ii) Food safety assessment, quality control and other features related to food processing, storage, authenticity; iii) Study of the effect of diet on health/disease and the mechanisms of nutrients and bioactive food components at the molecular level. She has published over 50 SCI papers and 10 book chapters. Her h index is 20 and her works have received over 1000 citations (August-2013).

Alejandro Cifuentes is a Full Research Professor at the National Research Council of Spain (CSIC) in Madrid, Head of the Laboratory of Foodomics and Director of the Metabolomics Platform (International Excellence Campus CSIC + University Autonoma of Madrid). He has been Founding Director of the Institute of Food Science Research and Deputy Director of the Institute of Industrial Fermentations, both belonging to CSIC. Alejandro's activity includes advanced analytical methods development for Foodomics (including transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics), food quality and safety, as well as isolation and characterization of natural bioactive compounds and their effect on human health. He holds different national and international awards, is member of the Editorial Board of 17 international journals (including Journal of Chromatography A, Journal of Separation Science, Food Analytical Methods, International Journal of Molecular Sciences, Heliyon, Journal of Pharmaceutical Analysis, etc.), Editor of TrAC-Trends in Analytical Chemistry and Electrophoresis, and Editor-in-Chief of Open Life Sciences. He has published more than 270 SCI papers, 30 books and book chapters and 9 patents. His h index is 70 (Google scholar, June 2020) and his works have received more than 17000 citations. Alejandro has given more than 200 invited lectures in different national and international meetings in Europe, Asia, Africa, America and Oceania. He has defined for the first time in a SCI journal the new discipline of Foodomics.
