Current objetives:

1. Structural, thermodynamic and functional characterization of proteins of biomedical/biotechnology relevance and their complexes with other biomolecules

2. Study of carbohydrates as biological recognition signals, and of protein-carbohydrate interactions involved in physiological or pathological processes

3. Search, development and characterization of new antimicrobials against Streptococcus pneumoniae and other respiratory pathogens

4. Development of new designer microarrays aimed to the structural and functional characterization of systems with different degrees of complexity (from isolated molecules to whole cells)

5. Study of host-pathogen interactions
