RESEARCH, LEARN, AND SHARE

Scientific dissemination

[ENG]
I love researching and learning through research, but if there's something I'm even more passionate about, it's sharing all that knowledge. Whether through podcasts, talks, or seminars, spreading science is a passion of mine.


[ESP]
Me encanta investigar y aprender investigando, pero si hay algo que me apasiona más es compartir todo ese conocimiento. Ya sea a través de pódcasts, charlas o seminarios, difundir la ciencia es una pasión.
