I hold a degree and a PhD in Biochemistry from the National University of the South (Universidad Nacional del Sur, UNS). Then I completed my training with post-doctoral studies in the United States, Germany, and Argentina, installed and formed my research group at the University of Buenos Aires. My research focuses on biophysical aspects of cellular mechanotransduction. To achieve this, the strategy is to combine biophysical techniques including atomic force microscopy, traction force microscopy, and advanced optical microscopy with molecular biology and theoretical modelling.
