I´m currently pursuing my PhD in Neurosciences in the Laboratory of Signal Transduction and Proteomics, led by Dr. Maruan Hijazi Vega, which belongs to the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, and the Institute of Neurosciences of Castilla y León (INCyL). My thesis focuses on the “Construction of kinase-mediated signalling networks for an integrative analysis of the kinome in glioblastoma” within the project “Cell signalling pathways that determine responses to PI3K/AKT and MAPK inhibitors: a multidisciplinary approach for an integrative analysis of the kinome in glioblastoma (KINOGLIOMA).” I study the mechanisms of action of PI3K-MAPK pathway inhibitors, mechanisms of resistance to these compounds, and the identification of new targets and predictive biomarkers to help classify patients for therapy. 

I graduated in Biology from the University of Salamanca in 2020, completing my studies with a bachelor’s thesis titled "The microtubule cytoskeleton as a target for molecules with antitumour activity", supervised by Dr. Rubén Martínez Buey.

I continued my studies with the Master's Degree in Neurosciences. During the development of my TFM "Expression of genes of the mTOR pathway in neurons with pathological alterations in patients with refractory epilepsy" directed by Dr. Orlando Jorge Castellano Benítez and Dr. Javier Herrero Turrión, I collaborated with the Comparative Molecular Pathology service of the Cancer Research Centre.

During my Higher Technical Diploma in Pathological Anatomy and Cytodiagnosis, I completed 710 hours of curricular work experience in the Anatomical Pathology Service of the Infanta Cristina Hospital and the Institute of Legal Medicine of Badajoz. I also collaborated in the study of the Human Papilloma Virus with the Molecular Biology laboratory.
