Alba Herrero-Gracia is a teaching staff and researcher in training in the field of Optics and Optometry, linked to the Applied Psychophysics research group of the University of Valencia. His academic and professional career focuses on the study of visual function in patients with neurological diseases, especially Parkinson's disease, as well as their possible rehabilitation through vision therapy.

She graduated in Optics and Optometry from the University of Zaragoza (2016-2020) and has a Master's Degree in Advanced Optometry and Vision Sciences from the University of Valencia (2020-2021). He has participated in various national and international conferences and has published scientific works focused on visual alterations associated with Parkinson's. Currently, he combines his research work with teaching in the Degree in Optics and Optometry.

Telecommunications Engineer since 2003 from the Polytechnic University of Valencia, where he also obtained a Master’s degree in Communications in 2013. In addition, he holds a Master’s degree in Information Systems Management since 2011 from the Open University of Catalonia and has been certified in ITIL v3 Foundations since 2011. He began working as a student at Adapting S.L. in late 2001, programming web applications, accessing databases, and transforming large volumes of data into user-friendly interfaces. In mid-2002, he joined the AIDO Technological Institute, where he completed his studies and worked until 2006. Most of his work was related to artificial vision systems and their communications, both for synchronization and for transmitting results, as well as installing and configuring systems at client facilities. Between 2006 and 2007, he worked at Eines Systems S.L., a supplier for Ford Motor Company, designing and programming artificial vision systems for quality control and robot guidance on production lines. From mid-2007 to 2011, he worked at the Valencia Stock Exchange, managing communication systems, programming new financial protocols, and collaborating in quality verification of an internal back-end program. In 2011, Martin joined Lifesequencing S.L., a company specialized in genomic research and massive DNA sequencing, where he developed programs to connect the results of open-source DNA alignment tools with internal applications and reporting systems. From 2012 until mid-2025, he worked in the Optics Department as a Research Support Technician, developing software for microscopy, holography, and other applied vision systems. He is currently an Assistant Professor in the Computer Science Department at the School of Engineering.
