Miss Ana I Moreno Manuel

Spanish National Centre for Cardiovascular Research, Madrid (Spain)

She is graduated in Biochemistry and Biomedical Sciences by the University of Valencia. During her last year at University, being beneficiary of an “Asociación Española Contra el Cáncer” (AECC) Scholarship, she was working at the “Molecular Basis Unit of Neurodegeneration” located at the Institute of Biomedicine of Valencia led by Dr. Marçal Vilar Cerveró (PhD). As a CICERONE Fellow, obtained in 2018, Ana started her stay at Spanish National Center for Cardiovascular Research (CNIC), taking part of “Cardiac Arrhythmia” Laboratory led by Dr. José Jalife (MD, PhD). She coursed the Interuniversity Master in Genetics and Cell Biology provided by the Autonomous University of Madrid. As a CNIC-MASTER Fellow and under the guidance of Dr. Jalife, Ana carried out a master thesis focused on the Andersen-Tawil Syndrome Type 1 (ATS1). Since then, she remains a member of the CNIC “Cardiac Arrhythmia” group and is now studing the arrhythmogenic and molecular basis of Short QT Syndrome Type 3 (SQTS3)

Atrial-specific reduction of Kir2.1 channel pore diameter in addition to loss of inward-going rectification underlies inducible atrial fibrillation in a mouse model of short QT syndrome type 3
