She loves hiking volcanoes, always carrying a book in her backpack — and, of course, her favorite food is pasta. Her favorite band? The Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Some years ago, Marta was selected to attend three ICDP workshops in a single summer. During that experience, she realized how few early career researchers were present — and that insight became a powerful motivation for her to advocate for stronger representation of young scientists in the field.

She holds a tenure-track position at the University of Granada, where she investigates past climates with a special focus on lake systems. Her research centers on the innovative use of carbonate clumped isotope analysis in Ostracoda, making significant contributions to paleoclimate science.
