Nationality Argentinian

Scientific Education

since 04/2021

Early Stage Researcher in the ETN Magicbullet::Reloaded at Bielefeld University, Germany.

PhD topic: “Development of scFv-drug conjugates containing HDAC inhibitors or tubulin-binding agents to enhance anti-tumor immune responses” - Director: Dr. Giuseppe Roscilli, Takis srl, Rome, Italy.

03/2009 – 11/2017

B.Sc. in Biotechnology at the School of Biochemistry and Biological Sciences, Universidad Nacional del Litoral, Santa Fe, Argentina.

Bachelor’s thesis title: "Development of an analytical platform for the study of the glycosylation profile of therapeutic proteins produced in CHO.K1 cells and their application to the selection of a culture medium for the production of etanercept”, Laboratory of Cell Culture, Santa Fe, Argentina. The first year of this three-year-long project was part of a Research Initiation Scholarship (Introduction to Research - FBCB - UNL – ZELLTEK).

11/2018 – 10/2020

Process Improvement Analyst, mAbxience, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

I developed my knowledge on monoclonal antibody bioprocesses, specifically working in both the upstream and downstream area.

11/2017 – 10/2018

Cell Culture Analyst, Hearten Biotech, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

I produced different regenerative medicine tools and therefore I gained experience in primary cell culture of fibroblasts and stem cells, and preparation of blood products such as platelet rich plasma.

07/2016 – 08/2016

Internship at Altera d.o.o., Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

I earned a merit-based IAESTE internship (International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience) where I completed a basic training in clean room design for pharmaceutical industries.

02/2015 – 06/2015

Student Exchange Program at University of Valladolid, Spain.

For this program, I obtained a merit-based Iberoamerica Scholarship (Undergraduate Students - Santander Universities). Additionally, during this period I volunteered at the Department of Innate Immunity and Inflammation in the Institute of Biology and Molecular Genetics, where I learned basic molecular biology techniques applied to the study of gene transcription and biochemical signaling in immune system cells.
