Desiré Molina is assistant professor of Organic Chemistry at Universidad Miguel Hernández de Elche. She received her PhD degree from Universidad Miguel Hernández de Elche in 2016, under the guidance of Prof. Ángela Sastre-Santos, where she has remained so far. She also joined the group of Prof. Anders Hagfeldt at EPFL (Switzerland) for 12 months as a postdoctoral fellow. Her research interests concern in the development of new materials for their application in photovoltaic technologies and other electrical devices.
