Short presentation
I am from Mexico, where I also complete my studies as a Ph.D. in Biomedical science in 2014 at the National Autonomous University of Mexico. I am passionate about Immunology, especially inflammation, innate immunity, cell migration and drug discovery. After I graduated I moved to Sweden as a postdoc in Jennys Hallgren group at Uppsala University. These years in Sweden have been really grateful and challenged me in many aspects. I like to work with projects that challenge myself and my skills.
