Marina Naval-Sanchez

Marina Naval-Sanchez is a research fellow at the Institute for Molecular Bioscience at The University of Queensland (Australia). She pursued postdoctoral studies in 2019-2024 in the Institute for Molecular Bioscience, The University of Queensland (Australia) and as an Office Chief Executive (OCE) fellow in 2015-2019 at CSIRO (Australia). She received her PhD in molecular biosciences in 2014 from KULeuven (Belgium). She received her MS in Applied Bioinformatics in 2009 from Cranfield University (UK) and MS in Agriculture Engineering in 2008 from the Universitat de Lleida (Spain). Marina’s research program applies state-of-the-art bioinformatic, machine learning, artificial intelligence and genetic and genomic tools to annotate regulatory elements and unearth the master regulators and enhancer logic governing development and ageing across species (mouse and human), and the genomic (regulatory) impact during evolution, domestication and human selection (farm animals) . Her research efforts have been supported by the Australian National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC ), UQ Innovation Connection, CSIRO Scientific Investment Projects, CSIRO OCE fellowships, and Flanders Wetesnchappelijk Onderzoek (FWO) PhD fellowship.
