Directorio

My research encompasses the application of microbiology, statistical analysis, risk analysis, advanced epidemiology, and sustainability within the framework of the One Health approach. This comprehensive model involves simultaneously addressing human, animal, and environmental health issues, requiring multidisciplinary collaboration. Therefore, my research involves collaboration with various exper

Dr. Loyola performed her primary and high school studies at Colegio del Sagrado Corazón. Monjas Inglesas in Santiago, Chile. Then, in 1988, she entered to Facultad de Ciencias Químicas y Farmacéuticas, Universidad de Chile to study Biochemistry. Her thesis work was carried out in the lab of María Rosa Bono and Mario Rosemblatt at Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad de Chile, where she analyzed the i

I am a biochemist and neuroscientist with a PhD in Sciences, specializing in Neuroscience, and an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Dentistry, Universidad de Valparaíso, Chile. My research background spans neurobiology, cell signaling, molecular biology, genetics, biological rhythms, sleep, and behavior. Throughout my career, I have worked with different experimental models, including rodents

Today, I am an associate professor of the Department of Animal Production of the Faculty of Agronomical Sciences (https://agronomia.uchile.cl/). I am part of the Food Quality Research Cen

Carlos is a biochemist from Universidad de Chile, the same place where he obtained his PhD in 2011 working under the mentorship of Dr. Inés Contreras studying both the regulation of LPS biosynthesis and the identification of Type VI Secretion Systems in Salmonella under the mentorship of Dr. Carlos Santiviago. In 2013, he was named PEW Latin American Fellow in the Biomedical Sciences and he join

I defined myself as an ecologist and a phycologist, highly committed to contributing to the sustainable production of seaweed from an ecological and agronomic dimension. My research interest focuses on three main aspects; intrinsic and extrinsic determinants of the productivity in cultivated seaweed systems, seaweed genetics and breeding, and the use of algal biomass in biotechnological applicatio

She is an Assistant Professor at the Latin American Brain Health Institute (BrainLat), Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez (UAI), Chile. Here, Dr. Ochoa-Rosales is the Principal Investigator of the Genetic Epidemiology and Epigenomics research group, dedicated to study the interplay among g

Doctor Cesar Echeverria Echeverria, researcher at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Atacama, studied Biochemistry at the University of Santiago, obtained his PhD in Molecular Biosciences at the Andrés Bello University, completed his Postdoctorate in Molecular Oncology at the University of Chile, has directed important national and international projects, has more than 60 publications in

Born in Curico, Chile, in 1984. Interested in sudying basic and applied science, including molecular and cell biology, physiology, neuroscience, genetics and disease models.

Evolutionary biologist and genomicist at Universidad de Los Lagos, Chile. My research focuses on speciation, adaptation, and biodiversity using population and comparative genomics approaches, combining genome-wide analyses with ecological and phylogenetic frameworks to understand how species diversify in response to environmental change.

My research interests cover many topics, but I am mostly engaged in interdisciplinary approaches with solid ties into behavior ecology, ecological physiology, neurobiology, and microbiology (particularly gut microbiota). In particular, I am focusing on how the effects of variation in environmental factors such as diet, thermal fluctuations of the environment, early life stress, and social ties or

Dr. Vidal obtained her Doctorate degree in Biological Sciences from P. Universidad Católica de Chile (PUC) working with Dr. Rodrigo A. Gutiérrez in the identification of the small RNA and mRNA components of the transcriptome in response to nitrate in Arabidopsis thaliana. After finishing her Doctorate, Dr. Vidal worked as an Adjunct Researcher in the Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiolo

I am a biochemist trained at the Universidad de Santiago de Chile and earned my Ph.D. in Molecular Genetics and Microbiology at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (PUC). I am a dedicated and driven researcher, known for my critical and creative thinking, adaptability to new challenges, and positive outlook. I thrive in collaborative environments where team members work together towards s

I am a Marine biologist with background in molecular biology and oceanography. I started my career working with oxidizing sulfur bacteria in anoxic marine sediments of coastal areas in magallanes, the southernmost region of Chile. Then one year later in 2022 I started working as Lab Technician for a group of researchers dedicated to oceanography and marine microbiology in a national research cente

I'm a bioinformatic engineer in the last year of a PhD program in Biotechnology. My interest are the study of adaptations mechanism of microorganisms that thrive in very extreme conditions through the comparative and evolutionary genomics. I'm also developing an interest in astrobiology too, participating in reunions leading by other students in this area.

I received my Marine Biologist title under the instruction of Dr. Tarsicio Antezana from Universidad de Concepción, Chile (1992) and performed my PhD Thesis in Cell and Molecular Biology under the supervision of Dr. Nibaldo Inestrosa at the P. Universidad Católica de Chile (2001). I was awarded a PEW-Latin American Fellowship to receive Post-Doctoral training in Molecular Biology and Genetics unde
