Until that moment, Fraga was known as a heavy-handed politician, though also seen as one of the reformers seeking a liberalisation from within the regime, but the drastic measures he took as chief of state security during the first days of the Spanish transition to democracy damaged his popularity at a great level.
Fraga was one of the writers of the new Spanish constitution approved in 1978.
Subsequently, in the autonomous elections of 2005, Fraga and the PPdeG lost their absolute majority in the Parliament of Galicia, and a coalition government of PSdeG and BNG was formed with socialist Emilio Pérez Touriño as the new president.
Molecular biology, genetics, and the use of antisense technology to control gene expression are a few of Dean Fraga's areas of expertise.

A member of the Society of Protozoologists and the Council for Undergraduate Research, Fraga has received research grants from the National Institute of Health, the National Science Foundation (NSF), and the American Cancer Society.
