Biography

Isaac Garrido Benavent (Quatretonda, 1988) has a degree in Biology from the University of Valencia (2011), a Master's degree in Biodiversity-Botany from the University of Barcelona (2012), and a PhD in Biological Sciences from the University Complutense of Madrid (2017). The doctoral stage was supported by a University Teacher Training (FPU) grant, enjoyed at the National Museum of Natural Sciences, which belongs to the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC). He is currently working as Assistant Professor in the Department of Botany and Geology of the Faculty of Biological Sciences of the UV (2020). His research encompasses different approaches to the diversity, taxonomy, phylogeny and phylogeography of lichenized and non-lichenized fungi of the Antarctic and the Mediterranean. His studies have led to more than 48 publications in different scientific journals. He collaborates with different national (UV, MNCN-CSIC, RJB-CSIC) and international research groups. He is a reviewer for numerous scientific journals, and editor of the Valencian Mycological Society Bulletin (SOMIVAL). He is also a reviewer of scientific projects for the Spanish Research Agency (AEI) since 2018. He has given courses in mycology and phylogeny in academic and socio-cultural fields.
