Biography

Maria Cuartero is Assistant Professor at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm (Sweden). She completed her PhD studies, which was based on potentiometric ion- selective electrodes, at the University of Murcia in Spain (2010-2014). On the basis of novel fundamental studies, a wide range of analytical applications were demonstrated, with the monitoring of polluted water remediation processes, enzymatic assays, foodstuffs analysis and ions detection in sweat in the foreground. Her PhD work received two awards, including the best PhD in Chemistry 2014 (University of Murcia) and the best PhD in Analytical Chemistry 2015 (Spanish Society of Analytical Chemistry). Her postdoctoral career is divided in two periods: from 2014 to 2017 at the University of Geneva in Switzerland, and then, at KTH in Sweden as a Marie Curie Fellow. Her studies has been mainly focused on ion-selective membranes interrogated by potentiometry and voltammetry for different analytical purposes, highlighting: the use of thin layer membranes for the simultaneous detection of cations in blood, exhaustive analysis of halides in natural waters and the detection of species related to carbon and nitrogen cycles in seawater using submersible probes. Her current research interests include the development of voltammetry (nano)sensors, light-driven smart sensors and submersible probes to monitor agricultural catchments. She has currently published more than 70 papers in prestigious international journals. She has been awarded by competitive grants (Spanish Government, Wenner-Gren Foundation and European Union) and important prizes (Swiss Chemical Society and International Society of Electrochemistry).
