Author Information

Dr. Garcia-Gimenez is a Senior Researcher at the Consortium Center for Biomedical Network Research, the Spanish Institute of Health Carlos III (ISCIII), and the INCLIVA Biomedical Research Institute, in the Dept. of Physiology at the Medicine and Dentistry School at the University of Valencia, Spain. Dr. García-Giménez is founder and CEO of EpiDisease S.L. (Spin-Off of CIBER-ISCIII), which develops the technology based on the patent EP15382319.0, currently in national phases (USTPO, EPO, CIPO and SIPO). EpiDisease received NEOTEC funds from CDTI and the Seal of Excellence from the European Commission in the SME Instrument Phase II H2020. Dr. García-Giménez has received 7 scientific and entrepreneurship national and international awards, including the National Award for Young Entrepreneurs in 2013 (awarded by the Spanish Ministry of Health) and the European Young Researcher from the Free Radical Research Society in 2009 and more recently the Eureka Innovation and Entrepreneurship Award in Melbourne (Australia). Dr. Garcia-Gimenez is a researcher at the University of Valencia. He is early in his career, but has been noticed as an up-and-coming authority in epigenetic biomarker research as it relates to disease, stress, and exercise.
