Salvador Cardona (Assistant Professor of Physical Chemistry) completed his doctorate at the University of Valencia based on the theoretical-experimental study of molecular magnets based on polyoxometalates. After completing his PhD, he obtained a postdoctoral fellowship with the medium-term goal of developing new materials for molecular spintronic applications under the supervision of prof. S. Sanvito at Trinity College Dublin (TCD). His reintegration into the UV was carried out within an ERC-CoG (DECRESIM) team for 13 months, until he obtained one of the three competitive 'Talent Attraction' scholarships from the Campus of International Excellence and a 'Juan de la Cierva' from MINECO. In 2023 he was selected for a prestigious Ramon y Cajal contract, and is currently stabilized through a teaching contract as Assistant Professor Doctor in the Department of Physical Chemistry of the Universitat de València. Salvador Cardona-Serra has been co-author of more than 40 Q1 publications in Chemistry, Physics and Materials Science, being the first author in several of them. His work has received more than 2,200 citations, and has an h-index of 23.
