I am an internationally-oriented microbiologist with experience working in multidisciplinary research groups in complementary fields such as physics, chemistry, microbiology and biomedicine. I currently specialize in Molecular Biology and Microbiology in the context of Infectious Diseases, with a special focus on their diagnosis. I have international work experience in well-known universities and institutes (US and Germany) and a strong publication record for my career position with 34 papers published in ISI Journals, 3 as the scientific responsible author and 6 as first author. I have participated in several research projects, including EU funded projects, I am a co-supervisor of a PhD student and have supervised BSc/MSc students, as well as participated in many research-related, peer-review and outreach activities.
