Aitziber Buque Martinez

Aitziber Buqué is currently a Post-Doctoral Associate with the Galluzzi Lab, in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Weill Cornell Medical College (New York), where she investigates innate and acquired mechanisms of resistance to immunotherapy in HR+ breast cancer and radiotherapy as a means to overcome them. Prior to joining the Galluzzi Lab (2018), Aitziber was a Post-Doctoral Associate with the Kroemer Lab in the Cordeliers Research Center (Paris, France; 2014-2018), after receiving her M.Sc. in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (2006) from the Complutense University (Madrid, Spain) and her Ph.D. in Biomedicine (2013) from the BioCruces Research Institute (Barakaldo, Spain). Aitziber has a long-standing interest in the immunological mechanisms controlling cancer progression and response to treatment.
