Rosana Lopez

Postdoctoral Scientist

Biography

I am a postdoctoral researcher in Professor Jack Satsangi’s group in the Experimental Medicine Division at the University of Oxford, specialising in translational glycomics. I obtained my PhD in Organic Chemistry, with a focus on glycochemistry, from the University of Buenos Aires in 2021, during which I developed α-Gal biomarkers for the diagnosis and monitoring of treatment efficacy in Chagas disease.

My research is driven by a curiosity about how complex glycans can be harnessed as biomarkers to improve diagnosis and treatment stratification in human disease. Currently, I focus on developing and validating glycan-based biomarkers for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), integrating advanced analytical techniques (UHPLC-MS, MALDI-TOF) with bioinformatics (Python and R) to translate molecular data into clinically relevant tools.

I am passionate about collaborating across academia and industry to advance translational medicine and glycoanalytical innovation.
