Dr Ëscar L¾pez received his PhD at Seville University in 2003 under the direction of Professor JosÚ G Fernßndez-Bola±os, JosÚ Fuentes and InÚs Maya. In March 2004, he was appointed as lecturer in Environmental Organic Chemistry at the University of Huelva, Spain. In June 2004, he was appointed as lecturer in Organic Chemistry at the University of Seville, Spain, in the Faculty of Chemistry. He spent 16 months (2005-2006) in a postdoctoral stay in Aarhus University, Denmark under the direction of Professor Mikael Bols working on the design of glycosidase inhibitors and the preparation of cyclodextrin derivatives as artificial enzymes. In 2009 he got a position as an Associate Professor in the Organic Chemistry Department, University of Seville, Spain. His research interests include Carbohydrate Chemistry, Heterocyclic Chemistry, Green Chemistry, Organoselenium Chemistry, Cyclodextrins and Supramolecular Chemistry, Glycosidase Inhibitors and Antioxidants. Professor JosÚ G Fernßndez-Bola±os completed his PhD at Seville University in 1984, after working on the synthesis of C-nucleoside of imidazol, under the direction of Professor JosÚ Fernßndez-Bola±os, his father, and Professor JosÚ Fuentes. He spent one year in a postdoctoral stay at the Technical University of Denmark, Lyngby, working on the synthesis and conformational analysis of sterically hindered oligosaccharides, under the direction of Professor Klaus Bock. He got a position as Professor at Seville University in 1987, and is currently a Professor of Organic Chemistry. His research interests include Carbohydrate Chemistry, Heterocyclic Chemistry, Green Chemistry, Organoselenium Chemistry, Cyclodextrins, Antioxidants from natural sources and Alkaloid Insecticides.
