After graduating in Veterinary Medicine (2014) and completing the MSc in Microbiology and Parasitology (2015) at the Complutense University of Madrid (Spain), I focused on the study of antimicrobial resistance. During my PhD at the same institution (2015-2021), I combined different molecular (genotypic, phenotypic) and genomic (Illumina, Nanopore) approaches to study the emergence, dissemination and evolution of multidrug-resistant bacteria in multiple environments and regions worldwide.
The main goal of my postdoc at the BEBP Unit of the Institute Pasteur is the understanding of population structure and pangenomic composition of relevant bacterial pathogens to develop and implement genomic typing schemes, especially cgMLST and LIN codes, for the study of their epidemiological, ecological and evolutionary dynamics.
