Ricardo Medina, Ph.D.

Position: Visiting Professor

About:

Ricardo is a Full Professor from the Chemical Bioactive Center, Central University of Las Villas, Cuba. His current work focuses on the isolation of antibiotic producing microorganisms from unique environments in order to find novel antimicrobial agents against multidrug resistant bacteria. Ricardo spends his free time enjoying his family and biking.
