Senior Researcher. Professor of the Department of Chemistry (ULL)
Dr. Teresa María Borges Miquel developed his Bachelor`s degree in Chemistry at the University of La Laguna (ULL) at the Fundamental Area. In 1986 she finished her PhD entitled “Spectrophotometric and polarographic studies of some hetero-azo-compounds and their metal complexes“. After that, in 1990, she got a position as a Professor at the Department of Analytical Chemistry, Nutrition and Food Sciences (ULL) in which she has been developing her teaching and research activity up to date.
Dr. Borges Miguel is co-author of a great number of communications presented in national and international conferences and she has published numerous book chapters and articles in prestigious editorials and journals with high impact factor in the areas of Analytical Chemistry, Electrochemistry and Food Science and Technology. In addition, she has participated in several national and international projects, among which it should be highlighted the ONE entitled Pervemac II, developed within the Program POMAC 2014-2020.
Her work has been focused on the study of different chemical equilibria making use of electrochemical techniques, as well as, the development of analytical methodologies for the evaluation of organic contaminants in environmental and agro-food samples using sustainable techniques based on the concept of “green chemistry”.
Regarding her teaching activity, the Professor Borges Miguel have a wide experience supervising research projects, including the supervision of PhD thesis. Apart from that, during her career she has tough in different subjects at several courses including the degrees in Chemistry and Pharmacy as well as, the Master Degree in Chemistry, Food Safety and Quality and Master Degree in Research and Tropical Diseases Diagnosis, all of them at the ULL.
