Bio
I was born on the 17th of March 1987 in Madrid, Spain. I obtained a bachelor´ s Degree in biological sciences from the Universidad de
Alcalá de Henares in 2011 and master´ s degree in microbiology and parasitology: research and development from the Universidad
Complutense de Madrid in 2012.
Before starting my PhD project, I was shortly employed by the pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly & Company in Alcobendas, Madrid, where
I contributed to the research activities related to the Discovery of new drugs against cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Thereafter, I
joined the research group of In Vitro Toxicology and Dermato-Cosmetology at the Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy at the Vrije
Universiteit Brussel (VUB), Belgium, to investigate the role of connexin and pannexin (hemi)channels as drug targets in liver fibrosis
through a combine in vitro-in vivo approach. This project, part of a double PhD diploma program established between the VUB and the
University of São Paulo (USP), Brazil, and supervised by Prof. Mathieu Vinken (VUB) and Prof. Bruno Cogliati (USP), was founded by the
European Research Council (ERC) and the São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP). During this PhD research, I participated in 2 other
research projects focused on the role of connexin and pannexin (hemi)channels in acute liver failure and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. The
results obtained during my doctoral research were presented at several national and international congresses. I authored approximately 20
scientific publications in international peer-reviewed journals, out of which 9 as first author (h-index 9). I am also co-author of 5 book
chapters. During my PhD project, I obtained a certificate corresponding to FELASA C degree to supervise and conduct animal
experiments. I has supervised a master thesis project, trained 2 PhD students and assisted in several practical courses for bachelor and
master students in pharmaceutical sciences at the VUB. In addition, I have given some lectures for postgraduate, master and PhD
students in veterinary sciences at the USP.
Although I had focused on the discovery of drug targets during my Ph.D., I decided to seek training in a more translational environment
that combines the clinical expertise with fundamental research for my postdoc. In this regard, I have recently been awarded with a PERIS
postdoctoral fellowship from the Government of Catalonia-Spain to join the dynamic laboratory of Dr. Capellá at IDIBELL-Spain. In this
laboratory, I am substantially broadening my theoretical and practical research experience in translational hereditary cancer research,
where I am responsible for the development of a human disease model by means of iPSC-based organoids.
