I am an Assistant Professor at the National Institute for Geriatrics in Mexico City, an Instructor in Physiology and Applied Biostatistics at the National Autonomous University Faculty of Medicine in Mexico and a Lown Scholar at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. The focus of my research is on cardiovascular disease risk factor epidemiology in high burden settings and on the intersection of these risk factors with the aging process in metabolic and endocrine systems. My research program leverages domestic and international collaborations to identify how molecular, clinical, and sociodemographic mechanisms underlying metabolic aging accelerate the risk for cardiovascular disease among adults in Mexico and in Latin America.
