Currently working on her bachelor's thesis, exploring ribosome biogenesis in wild-type and mutant plants of A. thaliana.

Edson Javier Bautista Rodríguez

Undergraduate Student · CIDC-UAEM

Studies Bryophytes from xeric environments, digging into microbial endophytes and their role in drought resistance in mosses and liverworts.

Gilberto Vicente Guízar Sánchez

Undergraduate Student · CIDC-UAEM

Working on 3D printing lab material and equipment, and designing new tools to make science on a budget.
