David Adame Brooks Research associate

Francia

In 2008, he obtained the Bachelor of Science in Physics at the Universidad de Oriente, Santiago de Cuba, specialized in the area of ​​biophysics, with the thesis entitled “Evaluation of Hemoglobin membrane interaction during the polymerization process using the spin marker technique ”

He obtained a Master’s degree in Neuroscience in the mention of neurophysics and neuroengineering, at the National Center for Scientific Research, in Havana, with the development of the thesis “Effect of dose reduction in CT in the diagnostic quality of images of stroke”

It has more than 30 refresher courses, among which stands out the College of Medical Physics at the International Center for Theoretical Physics in Trieste Italy, The Course A system approach to biology at the Latin American Center for complementary training, at the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina and 6 courses framed in the specialization in the management of intellectual property.

He has done a research stay in the Recombination – Repair and Cancer team, at the Gustave Roussy institute, Paris, France and in the Genome Stability-Instability (SInG) team at the Cochin Institute, Paris, France. Both stays within the framework of their participation in the Micro-nanofibous clays as nanovector for DNA delivery into mammalian cell project.

He has also formulated and participated in research projects in the field of image analysis and processing, as a system and method for noise reduction in Computerized Tomography images, Computer Aided Detection System for stroke, 3D Scanning system for medical applications.

The results obtained by his work have been presented at national and international events, as well as published in prestigious international journal. For his results, he has obtained several awards, such as the Ministry of Science Award to young scientists and the National Health Award, one of the highest recognitions of science in Cuba.

Between 2015 and 2018 he served as head of the Department of Biophysics-Chemistry, of the Center for Medical Biophysics, at the Universidad de Oriente, and was linked in educational activities at the University teaching the subjects of Physics, Electromagnetism and Optics.

He is currently in France working on a project to develop nanocarrriers to carry out Co-transfection in mammalian cells, aimed at the development of future gene therapies.
