About

Manuel Maldonado is a CSIC Research Professor at the Spanish National Research Council in Spain. His research focuses on the genomic and microbiome characterization of marine sponges, with recent articles exploring the chromosomal genome sequences of various sponge species and their associated microbial metagenomes. He has also investigated isotopic signals and biomineralization processes in sponges, contributing to the understanding of evolutionary scenarios within the Porifera phylum.
