What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters collaboration, innovation, and growth in education and research.

I am a dedicated educator and researcher with over ten years of experience in scientific research, literature review, and data analysis. Holding a Ph.D. in Biochemistry from the University of Granada, I have published 16 peer-reviewed articles and two book chapters, focusing on critical areas such as Cancer Biology and Drug Discovery. My research has garnered approximately 3000 citations, showcasing my contributions to the field.

My work on potential treatments for tuberculosis and Chagas disease has received funding from prestigious organizations like GATES and STTR in the USA. I am certified in virtual teaching and have extensive teaching experience across various educational settings, including public schools, private IB schools, and universities. Additionally, I manage a YouTube channel dedicated to educational content, further demonstrating my commitment to innovative teaching methods.
