About me

Assistant Professor at the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology in the Faculty of Medicine.
PhD. in Pharmacy from the UCM, and from the beginning of my career I have focused on aspects related to diabetes from a molecular, biochemical, and cellular perspective. During my postdoctoral stage in different research centres such as the CIB Margarita Salas or the IIb Alberto Sols-Monrreale, I have been involved in different research lines such as the role of autophagy in a neural context, or in projects related to diabetes, studying pancreatic development or the importance of different adipose tissues in relation to this pathology. Furthermore, for many years, I have participated in multidisciplinary projects in micronanotechnology (CIB Margarita Salas), in collaboration with groups of physicists (CNM-IMB, Barcelona) and chemists. In adittion to teaching and research, I love traveling and enjoy outdoor and mountain activities with friends and family.
