PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of California, Riverside, USA. Master's degree in Health Sciences from the Physiopathology program of the Faculty of Medical Sciences. Areas of expertise involve physiology, cell biology, molecular biology and biochemistry. Current research is focused on the activity of the TCPTP phosphatase encoded by the PTPN2 gene, an Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)-candidate gene, encompassing the physiological responses of the intestinal epithelial barrier, differentiation and function of intestinal epithelial cell subtypes, host-microbiota interaction and inflammatory response, using various tools such as: genetically modified animals, reporter-models, ELISA, western blot, biochemistry , immunohistochemistry, gene expression (qPCR, nanostring), scanning and transmission electron microscopy, and basic principles of flow cytometry.

Maternal nutrient restriction impairs overall fetal development with a long-term outcomes, including infertility in the adult offspring. The gestational food restriction may acts as stress factor that induces abnormal development/differentiation of ovarian cells in late life. The activation of several intracellular pathways in this disorder could affect in adulthood the follicular cells s…
