Guadalupe León-Reyes completed a degree in biology at the Benemérita Faculty of Biology Autonomous University of Puebla (BUAP). She obtained master's and doctorate degrees in biomedicine and molecular biotechnology from the National School of Sciences Biological of the National Polytechnic Institute (IPN) in collaboration with the National Institute of Perinatology (INPer). Subsequently, she completed a postdoctoral stay at the Institute of National Genomic Medicine (INMEGEN). She is a researcher at the
Instituto Nacional de Medicina Genomica. Her research interests mainly focus on the role of oxidative stress in metabolic diseases such as metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and dyslipidemias; neuronal alterations such as ataxia; pregnancy diseases such as preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, and infectious diseases during pregnancy.
Dr. Leticia Cedillo-Barrón is a bacteriologist and parasitologist and a specialist in virology and immunology. She obtained master's and PhD degrees in immunology, conducting research in malaria and lecturing at the National School of Biological Sciences (ENCB-IPN). She then joined the team of Professor Michael Parkhouse at the Institute for Animal Health in Pirbrigh (UK), first obtaining a fellowship from the Wellcome Foundation for two years. She then received her training in virology and molecular biology with the exotic viruses FMDV and ASF. She was then hired by the European Community at the same institution and for 4 years was involved in the evaluation of different targets of protective immunogens for the elaboration of potential recombinant vaccines. Currently, she is working at CINVESTAV. Her laboratory is interested in the characterization of early events involved in innate immunity against Dengue virus.
Moisés León-Juárez received his PhD degree in molecular biomedicine from the Center for Research and Advanced Studies of the National Polytechnic Institute. He is a professor at the Instituto Nacional de
Perinatología (INPER). His research interests mainly focus on viral infection, viral replication, antivirals, and vertical viral infections.
