Summary

Passionate and dedicated researcher with a strong background in molecular biology, biotechnology, and genetic engineering in plants. Skilled in applying advanced techniques such as CRISPR/Cas9, DNA/RNA extraction, and protein characterization to study plant defense mechanisms and developmental biology. Experienced in organic chemistry, particularly in the synthesis and analysis of natural products. A collaborative team player with excellent communication skills, committed to contributing to innovative research projects and fostering scientific advancement. Currently a CONAHCYT scholarship recipient, with a focus on epigenetics and plant-pathogen interactions in Marchantia polymorpha. Eager to bring my expertise and enthusiasm to the FuSEP program to further explore the intersection of biology, technology, and sustainable solutions.
