I got my Bachelor’s in Genomic Sciences at UNAM, Mexico. Then I did my Masters and PhD in Cell (quantitative) biology at the University of Edinburgh. Recently I finished a Postdoc at St. Anna Children’s Cancer Research Institute (CCRI, Vienna) working on single-cell transcriptomics of the differentiating trunk neural crest in the presence of cancer mutations. My interests come in two flavours:

• Can we understand mechanistically how cells integrate multiple inputs into a phenotypic decision (among many choices like in the neural crest)?

• Can we figure out what drives response heterogeneity across individuals in a population?

Beside science I love food, games, creativity, learning, and music.
