What I'm looking for

I’m looking to apply my experience in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, or diagnostics industry, or at research institutions in Mexico City and the metropolitan area.

At Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), I participated in national multicenter studies of respiratory and gastrointestinal pathogens in children, using multiplex PCR and molecular panels. I also diagnosed SARS-CoV-2 during the pandemic with InDRE certification.

Earlier, I studied dengue virus and investigated drugs that could inhibit its replication. That work led to international publications and an awarded patent on statins and vitamin D3 for dengue treatment.

My work has included evaluating antivirals against human rhinovirus, teaching medical and graduate students, and handling reagent and equipment purchases for laboratory projects. I’m looking to apply this experience in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, or diagnostics companies, or research institutions.
