From 2006 to 2016, I worked as a research professor at the Polytechnic University of Pachuca. I subsequently joined the Autonomous Metropolitan University, Cuajimalpa Campus, where I continue to work. Throughout my career, I have supervised more than fifteen undergraduate theses, four master's theses, and one doctoral thesis (some of which I co-supervised).
Regarding my scientific output, I have participated in the publication of over fifteen scientific and popular articles, in addition to contributing a chapter to a book and a textbook on chemistry, focused on the Chemistry Unit of UAM Cuajimalpa. My main research interests revolve around the design and synthesis of molecules with potential applications, such as surfactants for remediation processes, dendrimers with relevant functional groups on their periphery, and chelating agents. Currently, I am exploring "click" chemistry due to its contemporary relevance, as it allows for the synthesis of complex molecules.
EDUCATION
I am an Industrial Chemical Engineer, graduated from the School of Chemical Engineering and Extractive Industries. I subsequently completed a PhD in Chemical Sciences at the Center for Research and Advanced Studies of the National Polytechnic Institute (IPN), where my research project focused on the synthesis of heterocycles, macrocycles, and boron-containing macromolecules
