Profile
Rafael Morán earned his bachelor’s degree in biotechnology from the Universidad Politécnica de Puebla and a master’s degree in biochemistry from the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, supported by a CONACyT grant. His master's thesis focused on designing multifunctional peptides for cancer drug delivery. He is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in biophysics with a Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant, working on machine learning and metabolic models to enhance protein secretion in bacteria. His current interests include drug design, microbe networks, and metabolism.
