Hi, my name is Jorge and I am from Lima Peru. Most of my academic experience is related to Biomedical sciences, in the fields of Molecular Biology, Genetics, Biochemistry, Cell Biology and development.

Besides my research experience, I have a strong commitment to improve higher education in STEM. Since 2020, I co-direct the Research Experience for Peruvian Undergrads (REPU) program, that provides international scientific internships to Peruvian undergrads in top universities in the US and Europe. I have the chance to mentor undergards in STEM. Additionally, I am a native Spanish speaker, which allowed me to give Spanish lessons to some students in the USA. I want to use my best of my abilities to support students and build a career for myself in Education.
