My name is Magaly Rivas-Serna. I completed my PhD in Nutrition and Human Metabolism in 2015 at the University of Alberta, Canada under the supervision of Dr. Clandinin. In my doctoral program I studied gangliosides as bioactive components against Helicobacter pylori adhesion to human gastric cells. I did my first postdoctoral program at the same university. From 2018-2020, I worked as Senior Postdoctoral Researcher at the International Clinical Research Center in St. Anne's University Hospital in Brno, Czech Republic. Currently, I am working as Research Associate in Dr. Mazurak's laboratory at the University of Alberta. I studied gangliosides and phospholipids in different diseases using lipidomic analysis. I also have experience in the food industry as Nutrion Scientist and Quality Assurance Supervisor.
