About
My experience as a research assistant includes the generation of a cDNA bank of genes encoding proteins related to susceptibility of diseases in white shrimp, using the subtractive hybridization method to determine the differential expression of the genes. Also I worked in the design of a project during my studies using RNAi to suppress sexual differentiation of farm fishes. I graduated with honors, my thesis was a research project about the determination of antimicrobial activity in the mucus of a endemic fish in South America. Also I participated in the project that follows my thesis, that includes the generation of a cDNA bank of differential expressed genes in order to determine the...
