    Incoming Group leader at the University of Valencia. PI of a CIDEGENT grant.
    I am currently postdoc in the group of Prof. Clara Sánchez-Rodríguez at ETH Zürich and Principal Investigator of a SEEDs Grant (ETH Zürich).
    Prior, I was a postdoc and Long Term EMBO fellow in the research group of Prof. Eva Benkova at IST Austria (2015-2020) and project leader of a IST interdisciplinay grant. 
    I completed my PhD studies at University of Valencia (Spain) in December 2014 under the supervision of Prof. Fernando Aniento and Dr. Maria Jesus Marcote.
