Alejandro Cruz Saez<\/strong> was born in Barcelona in 1994. He studied the double degree in Physics and Chemistry at the Universitat Aut\u00f2noma de Barcelona during the period 2013-2017. Subsequently, during the 2017\/2018 academic year, he completed the master\u2019s degree in Atomistic and Multiscale Computational Modeling in Physics, Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Barcelona. During the years 2020\/23, he pursued doctoral studies at the Universitat Aut\u00f2noma de Barcelona where he defended the thesis entitled: \u201cBiomolecular simulations of some relevant enzymes in inflammatory processes: 15-LOX, 5-LOX and COX-2. Application to the study of mechanisms and the design of inhibitors\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

He is currently doing his first year of postdoctoral work at the same institution. The research topics he is currently working on are the study of reaction mechanisms catalyzed by enzymes and the design of photoswitches with anti-inflammatory properties.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
