Deyna de la Fuente Rodríguez
I graduated in Genomic Biotechnology in the Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León (UANL) in Mexico. During the course of my degree, I took part in a research internship at the Centro de Investigación en Ciencias Físico Matemáticas, where I developed a project focused on material synthesis using microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis. In this project I analyzed the photocatalytic activity of the synthesized materials to evaluate their efficiency in the degradation of drugs present in water.Later, I undertook a master's degree in Ciencias con Orientación en Ingeniería Ambiental (Sciences with a Focus on Environmental Engineering) at the Facultad de Ingeniería Civil in the same university, with a scholarship granted by the Consejo Nacional de Humanidades, Ciencias y Tecnologías (CONAHCYT). During this period of time, I developed my master's degree thesis titled "Degradación fotocatalítica de tetraciclina e inactivación de E. coli en sistemas acuosos mediante inmovilizados de heteroestructuras FeVO4 /X (X = WO3 y Bi2O3) vía screen-printing", which I carried out at the Energy and Ecomaterials Laboratory.After I finished my master's degree studies I started working as a new business analyst at Novogen in Mexico, where I was in charge of the evaluation and expansion of new commercial opportunities, optimizing the offers of our services and ensuring high standards of quality and precision.
Currently, I am engaged in a predoctoral research internship in Universidad Rey Juan Carlos, in Spain. Here I am specializing in material synthesis using chemical vapor deposition method (CVD) and the characterization and evaluation of its photocatalytic activity for applications in water and air decontamination.
Throughout my professional career I have acquired experience both in the field of scientific research and in the development and analysis of business strategies, which allows me to approach projects with a comprehensive, technical and results-oriented vision.
