The document summarizes the educational and professional background of Marina Moliner Herrero. She has obtained degrees in Environmental Chemistry, Environmental Sciences, and Management of Coastal and Estuarine Zones. Her experience includes work as a laboratory technician studying seagrass and research at the Spanish National Research Center of Molecular and Cellular Plant biology. She is seeking new opportunities that make use of her multidisciplinary education and experience in areas like research, analysis, and project management.
1. Since the beginning of my educational program I was always interested in Science. In order to acquire
skills in this field, I first obtained a Certificate of Higher Education (HNC), becoming a Technician in
Environmental Chemistry. This qualification allowed me to work as a laboratory technician, obtaining
experience in analysing waste water. Since that moment, I discovered my passion for science and I
decided to study Environmental Sciences. During the last year of my degree I obtained a Collaborative
Scholarship in the Department of Plant Biology, which gave me the opportunity of taking contact with
sea grass research. Finally, I complemented my academic training with a Master Degree in Management
of Coastal and Estuarine Zones. My last professional experience in research was at the Spanish National
Research Center of Molecular and Cellular Plant biology (IBMCP-CSIC-Valencia) where I was working
for 2 years. I am dynamic, meticulous and always committed to my job, I enjoy learning and working in
teams where I believe my multidisciplinary education and experience are really valuable attributes.
