Researcher | University of Valencia

Biography

Isabel Mendoza Poudereux began her research career in 2005, during her final year studying Biochemistry. She holds a PhD in Biotechnology with an European Mention (2013) from the University of Valencia, and a Master’s Degree in Creation and Management of Innovative Companies (2015). She has participated in several European research projects, related to Plant Biotechnology and Agriculture, both from a purely technical point of view and tasks related to communication and dissemination of results, especially in Social Networks. She currently compiles her work with the ScienceFlows research group and the FIT-FORTHEM alliance with her work as the Communications Officer of The Global Plant Council (GPC).
