Sebastià Galmés Monroig

Dr. Sebastià Galmés Monroig serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology within the School of Fundamental Biology and Health Sciences at the University of the Balearic Islands (UIB). His academic profile integrates teaching across multiple life science degrees and active research in nutrigenomics.

His research focuses on nutrigenetic interactions in obesity and cardiovascular risk, particularly within the Mallorcan population. Key areas include:

• Gene-diet interactions affecting metabolic phenotypes
• Nutrigenomic approaches to personalized nutrition
• Immunonutrition in pandemic contexts
• Biomarker development for nutritional interventions

His publication record demonstrates specialization in applying nutrigenomics to public health challenges, with significant contributions during the COVID-19 pandemic examining nutritional immunity factors. Current research continues through the NuBE group focusing on obesity-related genetic markers.

Teaching responsibilities span core biochemistry and molecular biology courses across Biology, Medicine, and Biochemistry degrees, plus specialized instruction in the Master's program in Nutrigenomics.
