Francisco J. Corpas is a Research Professor of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) who has more than 30 years of research experience in the metabolism of Reactive Oxygen, Nitrogen and Sulfur Species (ROS, RNS and RSS, respectively) in higher plants under physiology and environmental stress conditions using the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, as well as plants of agricultural interest. Research interests include the implications of these reactive species in fruit ripening and the nitro-oxidative metabolism of plant peroxisome. He was the Head of the Department of Biochemistry, Cell and Molecular Biology of Plants (2014-2018) at Research Institute named "Estación Experimental del Zaidín"-CSIC, Granada, Spain. He has published more than 226 refereed research papers/review articles in peer-reviewed journals and has edited ten books. See less
