Biography
Marta Artola obtained her M.Sc. in Pharmaceutical Sciences in 2008 from Universidad San Pablo CEU in Madrid and after working for a year as research fellow at Janssen-Cilag (Toledo, Spain) she became fascinated by the drug discovery process. In 2009, she moved to Universidad Complutense de Madrid (Spain) where she did her M.Sc. in Organic Chemistry and joined the MedChem Lab to perform her PhD studies under the supervision of Prof. López Rodríguez working on the validation of FtsZ protein as a new therapeutic target for antibacterial drug discovery. During that period she visited Prof. Sieber’s Lab at the Technische Universität München (TUM, Germany) to study the antibacterial activity of her compounds, and later on, she joined Prof. Baran’s group at The Scripps Research Institute in San Diego where she was involved in the total synthesis of Ingenol photoaffinity-based probes. In January 2015 she moved to Leiden University as a postdoctoral researcher under the supervision of Prof. Herman Overkleeft. During her postdoc she developed conformational inhibitors and activity-based probes for diverse glycosidases. Four years later, Marta was appointed as an assistant professor at the Medical Biochemistry Department where, together with her team, combines organic chemistry, chemical biology and biochemistry aiming to develop inhibitor and degrader libraries, activity-based probes and enzymatic substrates for glycoprocessing enzymes that reach solutions for unmet medical needs in terms of target validation, drug discovery and diagnostics.
