Testimony

I enrolled as a Postdoctoral researcher at iMM on April 2020, a particular time due to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. iMM surprised by by the excellent way they were able to get their facilities running, while guaranteeing safe work conditions for everyone. Having a background mostly focused in chemistry I found many colleagues with excellent background in more Biology-focused fields that taught me a lot about their scientific areas and greatly contributed to expand my skills as a researcher.
