Ricardo is a biologist with a Master’s degree in Biodiversity, Ecology, and Conservation. His research experience is focused on biotechnology, microbiology, and tissue bioengineering, working in graduate-level research laboratories dedicated to experimental biomedical investigation. His current scientific interests center on microbiome–host interactions and their role in chronic inflammatory diseases. During his PhD in the Medicine and Biomedical Sciences program at the University of Vic – Central University of Catalonia, he aims to investigate the mechanistic links between gut dysbiosis and respiratory diseases through the gut–lung axis using innovative microfluidic models. His research seeks to advance understanding of microbiome-driven mechanisms in human health and disease.
