Angel Catala

Angel Catala is affiliated with the Instituto de Investigaciones Fisicoquimicas Teoricas y Aplicadas, where his research encompasses biochemical and physiological aspects of lipid metabolism and stress responses in biological systems. His work has contributed to understanding the interplay between environmental stressors and lipid biochemistry in model organisms. His most-cited publication, "Chill-coma recovery time, age and sex determine lipid profiles in Ceratitis capitata tissues" (2016), examines how physiological recovery from cold stress is influenced by lipid composition, age, and sex in the Mediterranean fruit fly, highlighting the role of lipids in thermal tolerance and adaptation.
