Adjunct professor

Department of Bioinformatics

I am a versatile researcher with expertise in microbiology, bioinformatics, and entrepreneurship. Currently, I hold a professorship in the "Bioinformatics Area" at the Biochemistry Faculty of the National University of Rosario. My work primarily focuses on developing and applying whole genome-scale tools to predict microbial behavior and identify exceptional strains, particularly plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria. While our main focus is on agronomic applications, we also explore industrial and health-relevant strains. Recently, I co-founded the bioinformatics startup TAXON, which specializes in comparative genomics and genomic characterization. I am committed to advancing microbiology, promoting sustainable agriculture, and contributing to the scientific community. Collaboration plays a vital role in our success, and I actively seek opportunities to make a positive impact and foster innovation within the non-profit sector.
