My academic journey in Agricultural Engineering and later in the Master’s in Plant Biotechnology has been a continuous learning process and a development of both technical and personal skills. Over the years, I have experienced significant growth in my understanding of biological systems and in the application of advanced technologies to improve plant production and research. One of the most relevant aspects of my education has been my first approach to research, an experience that has allowed me to develop the critical and analytical thinking necessary to tackle scientific problems. Through my master’s thesis, I have been able to delve into the use of various molecular techniques, such as PCR and Real-Time PCR, fundamental tools for genetic research and gene expression studies in plants. Additionally, the application of techniques for phenotyping plants at the metabolic level, such as polyphenol extraction, has given me a comprehensive understanding of biochemical processes and their relevance in plant physiology. This knowledge has not only enabled me to acquire practical skills but has also helped me comprehend the interconnection between molecular biology and the metabolic mechanisms that regulate plant growth and adaptation. From a reflective perspective, I consider that my learning process has been driven by curiosity and the desire to deepen my involvement in scientific research, adn for this reasons I choose to move on in the science world.
