Paula Lorenzo Fernandez

Paula Lorenzo Fernandez is a Researcher in the Department of Organic Chemistry at the Faculty of Biology, University of Vigo, affiliated with the Biomedical Research Center and leading research group QO1 Organic Chemistry 1. Her work bridges organic synthesis and biomedical applications within the Vigo campus.

Education:

• Doctorate in Organic Chemistry, University of Vigo (2011). Thesis: "Study on pd-zn cooperation in couplings catalyzed by rpd propagrgilations and conjugated additions. Synthesis" under supervision of Dr. Ángel Rodríguez de Lera and Dr. Jose Miguel Aurrecoechea Fernandez.

Research Focus: Dr. Lorenzo Fernandez specializes in metal-catalyzed organic transformations, particularly palladium-zinc cooperative systems for coupling reactions and conjugated additions. Her methodology development targets novel synthetic pathways with potential biomedical applications, evidenced by her affiliation with the Biomedical Research Center. Current work emphasizes sustainable catalytic processes and stereoselective synthesis within the Organic Chemistry 1 research group.

Academic Profile: Recognized as a "UVIGO DISTINGUISHED" researcher, she maintains active research operations within the Faculty of Biology infrastructure. Her collaborative network includes thesis supervision (indicated by "Theses" navigation tab) and institutional funding channels ("Financing" section), though specific projects remain undisclosed in available materials.
