Enelia Cristina Peláez Gutiérrez
I am a creative and enthusiastic professional who has been working on projects for clinical applications based on optical biosensor devices. I am passionate about teaching others. I am a responsible, motivated, and very disciplined person. I have a very positive attitude and leadership skills.
My Experience
I have more than 7 years of experience working as a scientific researcher in several research centers, universities and laboratories.
I have worked in multidisciplinary environments, such as genetics, pathology, immunology, electronics, and molecular biology. I have been in different biotechnological research centers focused on the design of biosensor devices, the design of proteins, plasmids, and metabolic transformation in microorganisms. I have had contact with different research centers and universities, as well as in hospital centers for the management of pathogenic samples.
