Biography
Elena G Gonzalez is a creative, critical, and analytical researcher with an ability to conceptualize complex problems.Her research program focuses on the study of evolutionary biology, adaptive traits and origin of species diversity by combining the use of molecular systematic and proteomic-base data as analytical tools. Over the past few years, I have made progress in unravelling the evolutionary history, biogeography and population genetics of a variety of vertebrate groups. The recent use of methodologies based on 2-DE, DIGE and mass spectrometry provided the identification of candidate protein biomarkers related to environmental changes and protein variation among. With multidisciplinary studies on the use of metagenomics (high throughput sequencing, microarrays and genotyping) and proteomics (differences in protein expression analysis) methodologies, They have gained an understanding of the forces that shape genetic structure in the wild and how such structure may influence adaptation. I have excellent communication and organizational skills and an ability to work independently or in a team to deliver on schedule and on budget; the result of over 15 years of experience as a research scientist. She is growing professionally while contributing to and enhancing science research in an international environment.
