Bio
In 2001, I graduated in Biology from the University of Havana (Cuba). The research topic for my BSc degree was related to the cloning, expression, and purification of the human CD6 extracellular domain in Escherichia coli host to develop a detection system for a human hIORT1 monoclonal antibody. The results were presented in two international conferences and published in an international journal. After graduation, I joined the IIFT to work on several fundamental and applied projects related to the collection, maintenance, and characterization of entomopathogenic fungi. I also participated in industrial projects associated with implementing technologies for the organic production of citrus and grapevines, specifically in the isolation of local microbial strains to control various types of plant pathogens. In 2004, I acquired the category of Associate Researcher of the Cuban science system. At the IIFT, I participated in 11 international congresses (group of authors) and in 12 national congresses (being the main author in two of them). I was part of the editorial team of the book GEO Juvenil Cuba published in 2006 (ISBN: 959- 210-380-1) and a reviewer of its chapter 2 “Jóvenes en Acción” on environmental education in Cuba.
In 2005, I started at the Bioreactors laboratory of a public biotechnology center in Havana, called the CIGB, to express and characterize “humanized” antibodies in transgenic tobacco plants. The research project was co-funded by the Swiss biotechnology company Novartis. I used my research results to present my master’s degree thesis at the University of Havana in 2007.
From 2009 to 2015, I taught various disciplines at the University of Havana: “Phytobenthos” to students of the 9th edition of the Master course in Marine Biology and Aquaculture, “Molecular Genetics” to undergraduate Biology and Microbiology students, “Techniques of Molecular Biology”, “Biotechnology” and “Regulation of gene expression in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms” to students of the Master course in Plant Biology. At this stage, the teaching experience allowed me to acquire the category of Assistant Professor of the Faculty of Biology of the University of Havana in 2013.
In 2014, I obtained a three-month fellowship from the UNU BIOLAC (USD 3500) for a research visit to Dr Georgina Hernández’s group at the CCG-UNAM (Mexico). Under the supervision of Dr Hernández and Dr Eduardo Ortega from the Plant Physiology Department of the University of Havana, I studied the molecular mechanisms involved in the adaptation response of common bean plants to various adverse conditions, such as drought and salinity. The results of this research were published in an international journal and presented at four scientific conferences (two of them international).
In 2015, I returned to the CCG as a PhD student of Dr Hernández with a CONACYT scholarship no 582722 (12112.20 PMX / month). Our research project demonstrated the participation of MADS-domain/AGL transcription factors as positive regulators of the symbiosis between common beans and rhizobia through interaction with NIN, which is the master regulator of the symbiosis. In addition to publishing a scientific article in the prestigious journal Frontiers in Plant Sciences, the results were presented at six international conferences (four of them as the main author). In 2019, I collaborated five months at the Biology and Biotechnology of Reproductive Development Laboratory of the IBMCP in Valencia/Spain, supervised by Dr Luis Cañas and Dr Concepción Mena, funded by CONACYT and PAPIIT (project IN203819) grants. This internship contributed significantly to the doctoral thesis work.
From February to December 2021, I joined the Legume Functional Genomics Laboratory of the Faculty of Higher Studies Iztacala (FESI-UNAM / Mexico) as a researcher in an UNAM - University of Sheffield (UK) collaboration project on the regulation of symbiosis and nodulation events through small peptides in soybean plants, funded by the Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF).
Since February 2022, I have joined as a postdoc researcher in the laboratory of Dr. Georgina Hernández D. of the Research Program in Functional Genomics of Eukaryotes of the CCG-UNAM/Mexico, with the project “Post-genomics of beans: deciphering new protagonists of the symbiosis with rhizobia through transcriptomics”, funded by Conacyt (Reference A1-S-22570).
