Vicente Arbona-Associate Professor (PI)

Vicent Arbona, PhD. Has an experience of  >20 years in the study of plant-environment interactions, mainly focusing on biochemical and hormonal responses of horticultural and woody crops to concurrent abiotic stress conditions, resulting in more than 80 manuscripts published in peer-reviewed journals. Among his main achievements are the successful integration of metabolomics into plant physiology studies along with transcriptomics to elaborate comprehensive response models, important to understand how plants adapt to changing environments including variations in light quality regimes, leading to highly-cited publications in peer-reviewed journals such as Plant Physiology, Current Biology or Plant and Cell Physiology. He has so far participated in more than 20 research projects, eight of them as Principal Investigator, including the OPTIMUS PRIME consortium, with 9 international partners, for which he acts as proposal coordinator.
