Research Experience

Research assistant. July-Dec 2020. “CEPRA XIV: Fusarium platform” Project supported by RED CEDIA. Sangolqui-Ecuador. I worked on DNA extraction and Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) analysis under the supervision of Dr. Francisco Flores (ESPE) and Dr. Freddy Magdama (Escuela Politecnica del Litoral-ESPOL, Ecuador).
Research assistant. Feb-Oct 2018. “CEPRA XI: NGS pathogens” Project supported by RED CEDIA. Sangolqui-Ecuador. I worked detecting and identifying plant virus in water and with bioinformatic analysis under the supervision of Dr. Francisco Flores (ESPE).
Intern. Sept 2016. National Institute for Microbial Forensics & Food and Agricultural Biosecurity (NIMFFAB). Oklahoma State University, USA. I worked diagnosing viral and bacterial infections on plant samples under the supervision of Dr. Francisco Ochoa-Corona.
