Camila did a PhD in Sciences mention Microbiology at the Universidad de Chile (Santiago, Chile) under the supervision of Dr. Carlos Santiviago. Her Thesis focused on characterizing the interaction of Salmonella Typhimurium with the social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum, to identify the host factors recruited to the intracellular compartment that contains Salmonella. After over 8 years of working on Salmonella genetics and genomics using different host models, she developed a high interest in understanding the interaction of the pathogen at the cellular level using relevant cell types. With this goal in mind she joined Jost Enninga’s group in February of 2019.
