Scientific Profile: URECERCA
Is professor the Department of Basic and Methodologic Sciences at the University of Vic-Central University of Catalonia (UVic-UCC) and director of the same department since 2018.
Dr. Serra developed its PhD thesis investigating the biosynthesis of pheromones in Lepidoptera under the supervision of Dr. Gemma Fabriàs and Dr. Jordi Bujons at CSIC. During her PhD she did a short stay in Prof. Peter H. Buist laboratory at Carleton University (Canada). After her PhD she worked as a postdoc for a few months at RUBAM in CSIC in sphingolipid metabolism. Later, she moved to Children’s Hospital Oakland Research Institute to work in the role of sphingolipid metabolism in cancer under the supervision of Julie Saba MD PhD (2001-2009). After that she worked in Cedric Shackleton PhD and Gordon Watson PhD lab to investigate the use of gene therapy in the treatment of SLOS syndrome in mice models (2009-2010).
Later, she joined Univesitat Internacional de Catalunya as a research assistant under the supervision of Pau Mezquita MD PhD on the role of the truncated forms of VEGFR-1 in the regulation of angiogenesis on cancer progression (2011-2012).
She later worked as a postdoc on the role of ubiquitin ligase enzymes in the biosynthesis of lipid droplets at Center for Genomic Regulation (CRG) under the supervision of Pedro Carvalho, PhD (2013-2015).
Dr. Serra joined TR2lab in 2018 and develops her research on the mechanisms of tissue repair.
