簡歷
Sanchez博士是一位生物醫學專家,在學術界和製藥行業(荷蘭Crucell公司[現為 Janssen Vaccines and Prevention]和瑞典阿斯特捷利康製藥)都擁有國際研究經驗。她在墨西哥的ENCB-IPN學院獲得製藥及工業化學學士學位,其後取得烏特勒支卓越獎學金,在荷蘭烏特勒支大學完成生物醫學碩士學位。她在香港理工大學獲得生物科學博士學位。
Sanchez博士曾參與各種各樣的研究工作,包括與抑鬱症、精神健康、腎病學、病毒疫苗研發有關的研究項目。她擔任博士後研究員時,參與了哥特堡大學和瑞典阿斯特捷利康製藥的合作項目,研究受體酪氨酸激酶的串擾分子機制,此機制與腎髒病理學相關。她亦曾擔任項目負責人,與瑞士、香港和菲律賓的大學合作,統籌精神健康項目並開發數碼精神健康干預措施。
Sanchez博士對精神和神經疾病的潛在分子機制以及補充和替代醫學 (CAM) 的治療效果特別感興趣。她的研究重點是神經生成 ―― 一種與神經和情感障礙的病理生理學相關的可塑性機制,以及使用動物模型瞭解CAM對神經生成的作用。她曾參與某些研究項目,評估單一藥物、激素、香薰治療、中藥和社交孤立對神經生成的影響,以及神經生成對情緒和情感障礙的作用。她曾在國際會議上發表研究成果,並在Neuroscience、Frontiers in Neuroscience、Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience、Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine等同行評審期刊上發表論文,並曾成功獲得資助,進行腎病學和精神健康的研究。
