Director of thesis: more than 10 in BA, 14 MA and 8 Ph.D.

J Claudio Moreno Rocha, Ph. D.

J. Claudio Moreno-Rocha. Biologist from the Biology School, Master and Doctor degree with Molecular Biology and Genetic Engineering from the Medicine School, both from Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León in Monterrey, México. He was Assistant Research in the Molecular Biology lab in Medicine School from 1990 to 2000 and actually he is Assistant Professor and Full Researcher in Biology School since 2000 until today. He is Genetics, Bioinformatics and System Biology professor in the Biology School. His research projects are the Drosophila melanogaster microRNA promoter detection and characterization in silico and in vivo.

Advisors

Jeffrey J. Tabor, Ph. D.

Jeff Tabor builds synthetic genetic control systems to engineer complex biological behaviors such as pattern formation and social interactions.
His projects at Rice University include engineering cellular sensors that respond to unnatural inputs such as light, building genetic circuits and signal transduction cascades to process sensory information, combining sensors and circuits to rewire metabolic pathways, engineering new modes of cell-cell communication, and combining all of these technologies to program synthetic social interactions and pattern formation. The research builds upon his work as a postdoctoral fellow in Christopher Voigt's laboratory at University of California, San Francisco where he programmed bacterial communities to function as a light responsive photographic film and work as a parallel computer to perform the image-processing task of edge detection.
The research, which was supported by a Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) from the National Institutes of Health, demonstrated that complex multicellular behaviors can be engineered by the stepwise assembly of well-characterized genetic modules.

Diana Resendez-Pérez, Ph. D.

Diana Resendez-Pérez. Professor of Developmental Biology and Genetics in the Department of Cell Biology and Genetics at the University of Nuevo Leon in México. In addition of scientific research at UANL, she is doing teaching both in Bachelor and Graduate School basically on Genetics, Developmental Biology and Molecular Biology.

+<p><b>Dr. Vázquez</b> received the B.Sc. degree in electronic and communications engineering and M.Sc. degree from the UANL, Monterrey, Mexico in 1989 and 1991 respectively. In 1994 received the Ph.D. degrees from the same university with "Methodology to protection operation analysis for fault diagnosis in power systems" as his dissertation topic. His main research interests are in power system protection and application of artificial intelligence techniques in power systems. Since 1992 Dr. Vázquez has been a professor in the UANL, and from 1996, he is currently a Professor of the Ph.D. Program on Electrical Engineering. In 2000 he did a one-year research stay in University of Manitoba, Canada, and actually he is visiting professor at University of Alberta, Canada. Dr. Vázquez has been conducting research in power system protection and artificial intelligence since 1994. He has written or coauthored 15 technical papers, 80 conference papers. Dr. Vázquez has been the Graduate Advisor for 20 M.Sc. students and 3 B.Sc. in México. He has lectured in 95 post graduate and training courses in México, Venezuela, República Dominicana, Guatemala, El Salvador and Perú, mainly oriented to power utility engineers in protective relay theory and its operation.</p>
