About him:
Holds a M.D. Degree from the Autonomous University of Aguascalientes (2008-2015) and a Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences (2016-2020) from UNAM. He carried out his doctoral studies in the Experimental Pathology Section, of the Department of Pathological Anatomy of the Salvador Zubirán National Institute of Medical Sciences and Nutrition, where he was awarded the José Antonio Martín Mora prize for presenting the best doctoral thesis of the institute. During this period, his studies focused on studying the neuroimmune-endocrine response in an experimental model of pulmonary tuberculosis.
Subsequently, he obtained a UNAM institutional scholarship to carry out a postdoctoral research stay in the Laboratory of Systems Neurosciences at the School of Medicine of the UNAM under the mentorship of the renowned neuroscientist Dr. Limei Zhang. During this period, he carried out research on the role of neuropeptides in different models of physiological stress and studies on neurohistology and fine neuroanatomy, as well as in work related to neuroimmunology, neuroinflammation, and during the COVID-19 epidemic he published works related to the pathophysiology of this disease that have received a good number of citations.
He has presented his research work at national and international conferences (Israel, Scotland) and was part of the steering committee (treasurer) of the International Society on Regulatory Peptides (IRPS) as well as in the co-organization of two congresses of this society (RegPep22, Acapulco Guerrero; RegPep23, Stirling, Scotland). He is also a member of the Society for Neurosciences.
His lines of research cover various fields of neuroimmunology and neuroendocrinology, at a morphological and physiological level, related to the organism’s adaptation to stress and how neuropeptides intervene in the physiological and allostatic networks in these processes; as well as the disruption of these when the body becomes ill. He has published 11 articles on these topics in high-impact international journals.
