Rosa Carballo Rial

Rosa Carballo Rial is a full-time Professor in the Department of Inorganic Chemistry at the Faculty of Chemistry, University of Vigo, Spain, based at the Vigo campus.

Education
- Doctorate from University of Santiago de Compostela (1991) with thesis: 'Transition metal complexes with dithioether ligands with benzimidazole groups, as possible models of biological systems' supervised by Dr. Alfonso Castiñeiras Campos.

Research Focus
Her work centers on synthetic inorganic chemistry with emphasis on coordination compounds modeling biological systems. She specializes in dithioether-benzimidazole ligand frameworks for transition metal complexes, bridging bioinorganic chemistry and biomimetic material design.

Research Group
Active member of QI5 Inorganic Chemistry 5 research group, driving experimental studies in metal-ligand interactions and spectroscopic characterization of novel complexes.
