He studied Biology at the University of Barcelona (1974) and defended his thesis at the University of Granada). From the beginning of his scientific career he had interest in the diversity and evolution of microbes. He started working with the communities of halophiles that are found in solar salterns along the coasts of Spain and made pioneering contributions describing many new microbes. He started the large school of Spanish halophilologists that has extended over several universities and research centers and where, even today, they continue being among the leaders in the world in this field.
