About me

Accredited researcher (R3A), formerly Miquel Servet. I have a PhD in biochemistry and I3 certification. We are currently investigating the role of ubiquitin ligases in oncogene-driven colorectal cancer development, metastasis and response to treatment.Our goals are to elucidate novel mechanisms, to identify diagnostic and prognostic markers for the different subtypes, and to identify novel therapeutic targets.We use molecular and cellular techniques in patient samples and preclinical models such as organoids and in vivo models. With more than 4,000 citations, this work has resulted in relevant publications in the fields of gastroenterology, cell and molecular biology and oncology.
