About
Born in 1966 in Mar del Plata, Argentina. Studied Physics at University of Mar del Plata. In 1992 got the prestigious Physics doctoral scholarship from the Atomic Agency of Argentina ("CNEA") and under the supervision of Dr. Celia Saragovi she graduated in 1997 "suma cum laude" by University of Buenos Aires. Her doctoral thesis was the first one dealing with Mössbauer Spectroscopy studies of Fe compounds in soils of cultivations of the most famous infusion of the country: "yerba mate". After a postdoc in Brazil at the lab of Prof. Hans-Dieter Pfannes, doing Mösbauer theory and experiment, she pursued postdoc studies in the field of Synchrotron X-ray studies. In European Molecular Laboratory (EMBL) in Hamburg she specialized in XAS studies in proteins and live tissue. This studies continued at The University of Michigan (USA). In University of Utrecht she studied sulfur in oils in a joint project with SHELL GLOBAL SOLUTIONS (Amsterdam, The Netherlands). Later worked at the Canadian Light Source Inc (Saskatoon) as Industrial Scientist. Now I work at the Biology Centre of the Czech Academy of Sciences, studying metals in hyperaccumulator plants and crops with synchrotron techniques (Spectroscopy and tomography) and micro XRF at benchtop machine .
Latest interest is on Machine Learning and Computer vision to get the most of the imaging data. Currently working on surface catalysis and hydrogen fuels.
She has been speaker in international specialized conferences (SSRL user's meeting, BIOXAS, ICBIC, ICOBTE ) and provided peer review in several scientific magazines (Inorganic Chemistry, Dalton Transactions, Energy & Fuels, J. of geochemical Exploration, Journal of Experimental Botany, J. Environmental and experimental Botany, Royal Society Open Science and Food Chemistry).
