Nerea obtained her master’s degree in Molecular Biology with a specialization in Microbiology at Lund University in 2024. She is currently working as a PhD researcher on a project focused on the identification of yet undiscovered bioactive fungal metabolites. This work involves the characterization of plant–pathogen interactions and the integration of various molecular biology approaches, including genomics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics. The project is carried out in collaboration with the VIB and the MEMO group (Metabolic Engineering of Microorganisms) at Ghent University.
