Profile Summary

I am a passionate Biologist. I love designing experiments and carrying them out. I hold a PhD from the University of Buenos Aires and have worked as a Postdoc researcher in France. In all, I have more than ten years of experience working on the areas of cell biology, developmental biology, physiology and neurobiology. My research has focused on the subjects of growth, metabolism, nutrition and development progression. I have worked on Drosophila flies and I am always interested on expanding to other model organims. I am also interested in the communication of science. For this reason I am currently running and producing an illustrated blog aimed at the general public, about research in Biology. In my years working as a researcher I have gained ample experience writing projects, grant applications and research papers as well as producing presentations and posters for international conferences. I am very good at producing quality illustrations for publications and presentations. I would like to work helping other researchers communicate their work.
