Dr. Beatriz Navarro
- Postdoc
At the Valenzuela lab she worked on the evolution of turtle genome organization and dosage compensation. This work was funded by the National Science Foundation IOS-1555999 to N. Valenzuela).
Bea then moved to work in the Presgraves and Larracuente labs at the University of Rochester (NY). Later, she joined the PathoGenOmics group of Mireia Coscolla at the University of Valencia (Spain), and is now a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Universidad de Granada (Spain).
