PhD in Biomedical Sciences, Master in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Bachelor in Biological Sciences : Universidad Peruana Cayetano HerediaUniversity of Antwerp. Belgium in 2022
Funding Sources : An 18-month grant from CONCYTEC (Peru’s National Council for Science, Technology and Technological Innovation) funded my transition back to Peru and the initial setup of my lab. This support covered start-up costs and helped re-activate collaborations. I’m currently pursuing a tenure-track appointment at Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia to consolidate the group long-term. Besides I continue the collaboration with ITM Antwerp where my PhD project was done and currently I've expanded collaboration with important institutions including Oxford University and NHI, USA.
