A doctor of physiology and pathophysiology, I am specialized in the study of tumor-initiating stem cells, the subject of my thesis, which I carried out on congenital nevi. With more than 10 years of teaching experience, I convey my passion for research and science to my students, combining theory and practice to deepen the understanding of complex biological mechanisms.
