He completed a Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Laboratoire Physico-Chimie des Interfaces Complexes ESPCI Paris and TotalEnergies, under the supervision of Dr. Valérie Molinier, focusing on bio-oil/heavy oil interfaces for marine transportation fuels (2021-2023). He also held a Postdoctoral Fellowship at NC State University, working on transforming textile wastes into biobased building blocks (2020-2021). Dr. Marquez earned his Ph.D. in Applied Sciences from the University of the Andes, Venezuela, under the supervision of Dr. Jean-Louis Salager, where he focused on the interfacial rheological properties of surfactant-oil-water systems (2015-2019). He also holds a Chemical Engineering degree from the University of the Andes, Venezuela (2006). His research interests span interfaces and emulsions, biofuels, interfacial and bulk rheology, formulation, biobased materials, surfactants, sustainability, and pulp & paper biomass. Dr. Marquez has authored and co-authored numerous scientific journal papers and conference proceedings. He serves as an Associate Editor of the Journal of Surfactants and Detergents since 2020. He is a member of several professional and scientific societies, including the American Oil Chemists' Society (AOCS), the Technical Association of Pulp and Paper Industry (TAPPI), the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE), and the American Chemical Society (ACS), where he is part of the Industry & Communication Committees Dr. Marquez has been recognized with several awards, including the ENFL American Chemical Society Young Investigator Spotlight Award (2023) and the AOCS Surfactants and Detergents Division's American Cleaning Institute Distinguished Paper Award (2023, 2019). He has also received the Medal of Academic Merit by the Association of Professors of the University of Los Andes (2019) and the Dr. "Mariano Picón Salas" Teaching Excellence Program distinction (2016-2020).
