Intereses profesionales
My overall research interests involve the development of a comprehensive understanding of cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying neurotoxicity and neurodegenerative disease, as well as the pathways involved in these processes after metal exposure, aiming to identify potential therapeutic targets.
