Mayolo-Deloisa, Karla Patricia

Karla Mayolo-Deloisa has a bachelor's degree in industrial chemistry and a master's degree in biotechnology from the Autonomous University of the State of Morelos. In 2012, she obtained with honors, the PhD in Engineering Sciences at the Tecnologico de Monterrey. She later joined the Center for Biotechnology-FEMSA as a postdoctoral researcher. In 2015 she did a postdoctoral stay at the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. Since 2017, she has been a Research-Professor in the Bioengineering Department of Tecnologico de Monterrey. She currently belongs to the Biotechnology Faculty and the Bioengineering and Medical Devices Unit of the Institute for Obesity Research. She has more than 45 publications in internationally indexed journals, 4 book chapters, more than 50 presentations at National and International congresses, an h-index of 15. She is a National Researcher level 2 of the National System of Researchers of Mexico. Her research focuses on three main areas: the design and characterization of protein nanoparticles, the development of purification processes for the recovery of molecules with high biotechnological value and the design os transdermal patches to deliver active molecules. In September 2020, she won the prestigious Marie Slodowska Curie (MSCA)-Tecniospring Industry grant, to develop a nanodelivery system based on peptides against antibiotic resistance of pathogenic microorganisms, a project that she develops in conjunction with the Institute of Materials Sciences of Barcelona (ICMAB-CSIC). She is also a winner of the 2021 MujerTec Award in the Science category and has been an outstanding teacher for 3 consecutive years.
