Flor Negrete Díaz
Researcher, Industrial PhD
PhD student currrently enrolled in the Biomedical Engineering programme at the UPM doing an industrial doctorate associated with the company Silk Biomed. Specialised in Neuroscience and Neurophysiology of the Central Nervous System. After completing her master's degree in Biomedicine, she joined the UCM's Neurocomputation and Neurobotics Laboratory and the UPM's Biomedical Technology Centre, where she specialised in novel therapies for neurological diseases such as ischaemic stroke. These are based, on the one hand, on modulating brain activity through stimulation of the vagus nerve and, on the other, on the repair and regeneration of the brain using silk fibroin as an encapsulating material for stem cells.
