MARIA ISABEL SANDEZ MACHO

Maria Isabel Sandez Macho is a Researcher affiliated with the Department of Physical Chemistry at the Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Santiago de Compostela. Her work focuses on physicochemical studies of surfaces, biointerfaces, and colloidal systems relevant to pharmaceutical applications. She completed her doctoral thesis in 1979 under Dr. José Miñones Trillo, investigating lecithin and cephalin monolayers related to silicosis etiology. She contributed to the research group BIOINTERFAR, exploring pharmaceutical-relevant biointerfaces and colloids.

Education:

• PhD in Physical Chemistry, University of Santiago de Compostela (1979)
