As stated by the ERC panel: вЂњThe PL is a dynamic and ambitious scientist with an excellent track record and important contributions to the fieldвЂќ. Last year I was selected for the ERC consolidator grant and got short-listed in the reserve list for funding with qualification of вЂњA-ExcellentвЂќ. I have successfully competed and obtained funding from several national and international research agencies and government entities: two Marie Curie European grants, Juan de la Cierva and RamГіn y Cajal reseach contracts, and a вЂњBeca LeonardoвЂќ of BBVA foundation. I have been the principal investigator for 5 research projects. I have participated in 13 research projects. I am founder and coordinator of 'Woman in Malaria' community. I was editor of a special issue for Briefings in Functional Genomics, associate editor of Frontiers and a regular reviewer for more than 30 journals (e-life, PLoS Pathogens, Nucleic Acids Res, Nat Comm, Ecology Letters, Epigenetics & Chromatin, among others). I am part of the panel of experts of the research evaluation agency (REA) of the European Commission H2020, I have participated in evaluation committees for the AEI, ANR, FCT, AGAUR and other international agencies. I have supervised 2 PhD theses and I am supervising 1 PhD thesis. My contributions include 10 invited talks and > 30 oral presentations at international and national conferences/meetings. My international experience includes two postdoctoral stays: 3 years at the CNRS-IRD, France and 3 years at Emory University, United States and more than 12 months working in Africa. My research outputs include 46 peer-reviewed papers (Google Scholar h-index: 23, >1790 citations). Throughout my career I have accumulated extensive experience in evolutionary biology, parasitology and molecular biology, with specific training and experience in epigenetics, genomics and bioinformatics. Similarly, the lab has pioneered the application of epigenomic approaches to study malaria parasite gene regulation. Previous research funded by Leonardo fellowship of FundaciГіn BBVA permitted the isolation, cloning and genome sequencing of field parasites from Burkina-Faso, Africa. falciparum, and extensive experience in malaria-endemic regions. The PL has strong hands-on experience in chromatin and transcriptional regulation in P. Currently, we are the PI, 2 PhD students, and 3 masters. The group is interested in understanding the role of epigenetic processes in host-parasite interactions, with a focus on malaria.
