Alejandro Franco Sanchez

Alejandro Franco Sánchez serves as Associate Professor of Microbiology at the University of Murcia's Faculty of Health Sciences. His research investigates stress response mechanisms in yeast models, particularly trehalose synthesis/degradation pathways in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

His doctoral work analyzed gene regulation under environmental stresses, employing molecular genetics and biochemical approaches to characterize metabolic adaptations in eukaryotic microorganisms.
