Prof. Francisco Javier SEÑORÁNS has developed his research and teaching career in Food Science and Technology in different Spanish and international Institutions during the last 30 years in Madrid (CSIC and UAM) and as Researcher and Lecturer at Uppsala University (Sweden) for two years. He is Chemical Sciences PhD (1996) and at present is Full Professor (Catedratico de Universidad) at Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (Spain), where he has been responsible for more than 18 years of several research competitive projects and contracts with industry. His topics are focused on enzymatic biotechnology for structured lipid production, phenolic lipids and phospholipid modification, and green extraction of microalgae lipids, plant antioxidants and health effects of natural compounds. Prof. Señorans was in charge of the management and creation of the Joint Institute in Food Science Research (CIAL) as a Co-director since its foundation in July 2007. He is co-author of more than 125 articles of international impact (SCI) with h index of 41 (Web of Science), apart from other publications and of several international patents transferred to industry. In 2001 he received the Prize "Archer Daniels" granted by the AOCS. At present he directs a Research team (Healthy Lipids Group at UAM) with a sound record of research contracts with food and pharma industry, in projects related with bioactive lipids, including omega-3 PUFA fractionation and enrichment of fish and marine oils, microalgae components extraction with green solvents using compressed fluids and supercritical technology, and enzymatic biotechnologies for synthesis and modification of structured lipids, hypocaloric oils, and phospholipids. His new research lines include microencapsulation for bioactive ingredients protection and delivery with new lipid nanocarriers and liposomes. In 2022 Prof. Señorans is Responsible Resercher of 5 research contracts with industry and a project on circular economy with microalgae (ALGATEC-CM) in collaboration with 2 universities and 3 research centers, besides of being co-Responsible Researcher (co-IP) of a project on phospholipids and DHA as neuroprotectors, and on green extraction of bioactive compounds.
