WORK HISTORY
Postdoctoral Fellow @Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center
Miami, FL, US
At Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, I lead a variety of laboratory management initiatives, constantly finding ways to streamline processes and enhance efficiency. My role involves developing fine-tuning protocols for key techniques like cell culture, Western blotting, and flow cytometry, with a focus on high reproducibility in immunological assays. Every day, I work to advance our understanding of immune response mechanisms, collaborating closely with colleagues and sharing insights from our findings.Key Achievements:• Successfully enhanced T cell activation and cytotoxicity through drug application, providing valuable insights into potential immunomodulatory therapies.• Demonstrated the promising role of nitric oxide as an antitumoral agent, significantly reducing tumor size in prostate cancer models using subcutaneous xenografts.• Identified endoplasmic reticulum stress as a pivotal pathway in drug-induced apoptosis, advancing the understanding of cell death mechanisms crucial for cancer treatments.
