‘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.’
