Biography

Ruth Soler Agesta is currently a Visiting Ph.D. Student with the Galluzzi Lab, in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Weill Cornell Medical College (New York), where she is investigating the role of mitochondrial damage in immunogenic cell death. Prior to joining the Galluzzi Lab (June 2023), she enrolled as a Ph.D. Student at the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Zaragoza (Spain; 2019) after receiving her B.Sc. in Biology from the University of Mons (Belgium; 2012-2015) and her M.Sc. in Biochemistry and Molecular and Cell Biology from the University of Zaragoza (Spain; 2017) and Research in Health Sciences from the University of San Jorge (Spain; 2019). Ruth has a long-standing interest in the role of mitochondria and metabolism in tumor progression and metastasis.
