DIALOGUE WITH Pere Estupinyà

Dialogue on sexuality and science with Pere Estupinyà

On 31 October 2018, Pere Estupinyà, biochemist, writer, and scientific communicator, led a new FGUMA Dialogue event. This successful initiative has already received speakers such as César Bona, candidate for the Global Teacher Prize, known as the Nobel Prize for teachers; Aitor Sánchez, nutritionist, food technologist, and science communicator; Chema Alonso, hacker and Chief Data Officer (CDO) at Telefónica; Marta Flich, economist, actress, and publisher of The Huffington Post’s topical and often humourous video blog; and Manu Sánchez, comedian, presenter, actor, and businessman.

He is currently the director and presenter of “The Brain Hunter” on La 2 de TVE, the presenter of the science section on the programme “A Vivir” on La Ser; a conference speaker, and an adviser on science and innovation issues. He often collaborates on television channels such as La 1, Canal Cero, TV3, and print media. He was recently awarded the Museos Científicos Coruñeses Prismas prize for dissemination of scientific culture in the video category for his work “El reloj interno”. He is also the author of “El Ladrón de Cerebros” (2010), “Rascar donde no pica” (2012), “S=EX2: La Ciencia del Sexo” (2013), and “Comer Cerezas con los Ojos Cerrados” (2016).

He began his journalistic career working on the TVE programme Redes, where he spent four seasons as a screenwriter and scientific editor. In 2007, he was the first Spanish national to be awarded the Knight Science Journalism Fellowship at MIT. He spent eight years living between Boston; Washington, DC; and New York, working at the US National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), the Organization of American States (OAS), and at MIT as Knight Science Journalism Tracker. He also collaborated with Scientific American, the National Genome Institute, the SINC agency, and wrote the acclaimed blog “Apuntes Científicos desde el MIT” in El País.

In “Dialogue,” Pere spoke about sexuality, having become a benchmark in the Spanish-speaking world on this topic as a result of his extensive work, experiences, and the repercussion of the book “S=EX2: La Ciencia del Sexo. He gives conferences, participates in seminars and workshops, offers personalised coaching, and gives talks in the media about the bio-psycho-sociology of sexuality in a rigorous and novel way.

Exercise of the aforementioned rights is prohibited without its express authorisation.

The creation of a link to another webpage or website on the internet does not in any case imply the GENERAL FOUNDATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MÁLAGA’s acceptance or approval of its content or services and as such, it does not accept any responsibility for it.

Whoever proposes creating a link on this website must request the prior approval of its owner. The owner reserves the right to claim possible damages that may be caused by the establishment of this link without the necessary authorisation.

THIRD. Privacy Policy: The GENERAL FOUNDATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MÁLAGA has proceeded to comply with the current personal data protection regulations. It has adopted all the necessary technical and organisational measures to guarantee the security of its clients’ and users’ personal data and to prevent their alteration, loss, processing, or unauthorised access to them.

The personal data that may be collected through this website will be processed fairly and lawfully pursuant to the principles and rights included in the Personal Data Protection legislation.

Said data may be incorporated into files that are duly registered with the Spanish Data Protection Agency, which are under the responsibility of the GENERAL FOUNDATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MÁLAGA, with the specific purposes that arise from properly carrying out the requested services and for sending communications (including ADVERTISING and newsletter subscription) that may be to their interest and always related to the GENERAL FOUNDATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MÁLAGA’s own services.

Your data cannot be transferred to third parties without your consent, with the exceptions established in the law and in the case of processors (if you would like more information about the latter, you may request it from us).

Nevertheless, in order to be able to provide you with the requested services, the following transfers are necessary, which you expressly consent to upon contracting with or making other requests of us:

University of Málaga.
Public and/or private bodies and entities that intervene in an event, course, or activity or those to whom data must be transferred as required by law.

In order to be able to contract with this entity, you must be of legal age.

We may occasionally request and process sensitive data related to health, food allergies, disabilities, or other information for the organisation of a specific activity, given that without this data, we would not be able to provide the service of interest in the proper conditions. Nevertheless, the purpose of data processing by the GENERAL FOUNDATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MÁLAGA is not specifically the collection of this type of information.

You should know that transfers of data to third countries may occur for the organisation of and participation in activities, events, or courses that are held in those countries. That is to say, if you sign up for a course in Málaga that is held in the United States of America (for example), we necessarily have to transfer your data to the local organisers. This transfer is legally based on both your express consent and on article 49.1.b of the General Data Protection Regulation, that is, when the international transfer:

“…is necessary for the performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller or the implementation of pre-contractual measures taken at the data subject’s request.”

In the event that users were provided with the possibility of creating personal access keys—composed of a client code (login) and a password—in order to be able to visit restricted-use areas, they will be the only ones who may use them and, in consequence, will be responsible for all operations performed with said keys.

To this end, the user must select characters that are not easily identifiable and keep them secret. Facilitating, using, attempting to decrypt the access keys of others, or revealing them to other unauthorised persons is considered a severe violation of the norms of use and security. If the user has reasons to believe that his/her key is or may be known by any person who is not authorised to know it, he/she must immediately bring this to the knowledge of the GENERAL FOUNDATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MÁLAGA so that he/she may be assigned a new one.

Website users may exercise their rights to access, rectification, erasure, and others related to their data before the GENERAL FOUNDATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MÁLAGA through email, the website, letter, or appearing in person at the address indicated at the beginning.
