‘I worked as a researcher at the lab led by Doctor J. Pouysségur, belonging to the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS). At present, I am doing research into hypoxia and pathological conditions at CIC bioGUNE (Bizkaia Science and Technology Park). ’I decided to come to Bizkaia when I got a job offer from CIC bioGUNE to do research into pathologies and hypoxia, whose results can be used in treatments for cancer, ischemia or glomerulonephritis. ’I got support from bizkaia:talent at all times, and I think their job is superb because it helps attract and relocate professionals with broad experience in a wide variety of fields.’
