Montserrat Pinent Armengol

Montserrat Pinent Armengol is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Biotechnology at Universitat Rovira i Virgili (URV) in Tarragona, Spain, where she serves as a dedicated researcher within the Molecular Bioactivity of Food research group. Her work bridges biochemical analysis with nutritional science to investigate how dietary components influence human health at molecular levels.

Her academic foundation includes a PhD in Biochemistry, establishing her expertise in molecular mechanisms of food compounds. Her research profile centers on bioactive molecules in food systems and their physiological impacts.

Dr. Pinent Armengol's primary research domains encompass Biochemistry, Food Science, Nutritional Biochemistry, Molecular Nutrition, and Biotechnology. Her investigations focus specifically on the molecular pathways through which food-derived compounds modulate metabolic processes, with implications for chronic disease prevention and functional food development.

She actively contributes to the Molecular Bioactivity of Food research group, which employs advanced biochemical and biotechnological methodologies to characterize food components' health effects. This collaborative team investigates structure-activity relationships of bioactive molecules while maintaining strong ties to URV's research infrastructure in Tarragona.
