My name is Juan Manuel, and I am a postdoctoral researcher from Santa Fe, Argentina. I am excited to have the opportunity to introduce myself and share a little bit about my interests and work.
During my Ph.D. studies, I worked on the development of a new generation vaccine candidate for hepatitis B. This experience taught me a great deal about the complexities of viral diseases and how we can develop effective treatments to combat them. Currently, I am working on the structural characterization of the Yellow Fever Virus. My research involves a variety of techniques, including cryoEM, an exciting technique that allows us to study the structure of viruses at a high resolution. By understanding the virus’s structure, we can identify potential targets for drug development and better understand how the virus interacts with host cells.
In my free time, I enjoy watching sports, drinking mate, and spending time with friends. Mate is a traditional Argentine beverage that is often shared among friends and family, and I find it to be a great way to connect with others.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me better, and I look forward to connecting with you and learning from your experiences as well.
