Graduated with a bachelor's degree in Computer Science from the Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Morelos, with her thesis focusing on parallelization of a super-resolution algorithm at the Laboratorio Nacional de Microscopía Avanzada (LNMA-IBT-UNAM). She pursued her master's degree in Optics at the Instituto Nacional de Astrofísica, Óptica y Electrónica (INAOE), where she worked on image reconstruction in microscopy through scattering media. She obtained her Doctorate from the Posgrado en Ciencia e Ingeniería de la Computación at UNAM, with her project titled "Analysis and classification of flagellar beating patterns of spermatozoa using 3D+t imaging." Currently, she is conducting a postdoctoral stay at LNMA-IBT-UNAM as part of the project "Advancing Bioimaging core services with artificial intelligence," funded by the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative. Additionally, she is associated with Educaciencia, a company that produces 3D-printed microscopes, provides teacher training, and conducts workshops aimed at fostering STEM curiosity among children and youth, thereby enhancing education in Mexico.

Today, I’m excited to introduce Educaciencia, a pioneering spin-off from Mexico’s National Laboratory of Advanced Microscopy (LNMA). Our journey began with a transformative project called Educascope, and through this post, I want to share with you how this initiative has evolved, and the impact it has had on STEM education.
