I was told by a PhD thesis committee member that if I returned to Mexico after a postdoc I would "fade into mediocrity". However, I did return to my home country, started my own lab, and are now well funded to investigate the genetics and genomics of cancer in Mexican patients.

...We started the paperwork to import the mice we need from @jacksonlab in May last year. Today, finally, our purchase was approved by University! Can't wait to start! Massive thanks to @Christian_moli_ & a team incl. @LIIGH_UNAM technicians & admins for making this happen! (2/2)

I don't have the #MEX jersey but I have the one for the team I support! Nearly the same thing right? 😀 (Yes, it says Bimbo. Bimbo is a massive bread brand in Mexico* and was the team's sponsor. Yes they made fun of me in England when I wore this!!!) *

Whether there is a superior race is a scientific question and can only be answered by highly qualified geneticists after a thorough scientific investigation. For lay people to have a no answer to such a question prior to investigation is bizarre, non-scientific, and pure politics

I am very confused by this question. Should I select Africa, Asia, Western Europe, etc? (also, Mexico is North America @ElsevierConnect )

So excited to see this profile @nature of a Latin American scientist 🇺🇾 and his potentially big biological discovery! Ribosomes in extracellular space?? 🤩 #scienceanywhere #LatinAmerica #exRNA

The biologist on the hunt for extracellular ribosomes

Nature - A serendipitous finding led Juan Pablo Tosar to uncover the protein-making machinery outside cells — a discovery that has scientists rethinking fundamental assumptions.

Hay un video de la Dra. Acevedo Whitehouse en donde (otra vez) pone en duda la efectividad de las vacunas. Está causando que varias personas que conozco duden de vacunarse. Aquí sus conclusiones. ¿alguien sabe si ya publicó sus interpretaciones en una revista revisada por pares?

Sí, han sido cinco años ya... gestionando permisos de comités de ética en investigación, invitando a los pacientes a formar parte del estudio, reclutando al equipo de trabajo y pidiendo donativos, pero con ayuda de un gran equipo así que no nos rendimos 💪🏽😀
