Harnessing Protein Evolution and Design for Sustainable Bioenergy

Our laboratory is currently in transition to the Institute of Biotechnology (IBT-UNAM). In this context, we invite undergraduate, Master’s, and PhD students interested in protein design and evolution to join our research group. We are seeking individuals with training or interest in areas such as bioinformatics, programming, molecular biology, protein purification, biophysics, molecular dynamics, or related disciplines, and who are motivated to develop interdisciplinary projects within a collaborative research environment.
