Personal profile
Research Interests
The five main lines of research are:
1- Molecular mechanisms associated with colorectal cancer progression and tumor microenvironment.
2- Molecular mechanisms that produce liver diseases associated with metabolic syndrome, lipid metabolism and possible nutraceutical therapies.
3- Participation of miRNA in the process of cellular senescence in endothelial cells.
4- Antibiotic resistance mechanisms and virulence in multi-resistant bacteria from hospital and environmental reservoirs, along with the evaluation of new therapies.
5- Molecular mechanisms associated with spinal muscular atrophy.
Liliana Berrocal Silva is Biochemist, graduated with maximum distinction from the Universidad de Chile (2001). She is Ph. D. in Moleculars Biosciences from the Andres Bello University (2012), where her research training focused on the area of bacterial pathogenicity. She has worked as professor of microbiology for medical students and other health care professionals since 1998 at several chilean universities (PUC, UDLA, UNAB, UFT) . Currently, she directs the Center for Biomedical Research (CIBMED), Faculty of Medicine, Universidad Finis Terrae, Santiago, Chile (FM-UFT).
