Isabel Varela Nieto (She/Her)
Research Professor, CSIC
Dr. Inmaculada Yruela graduated and earned her doctorate in Chemistry at the University of Sevilla (Spain). She has been a visiting guest scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion in Mülheim an der Ruhr (Germany) and at Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology in Indiana University School of Medicine (USA). She is research scientist at the CSIC and group leader at Computational and Structural Biology in Estación Experimental de Aula (CSIC), Zaragoza (Spain). From the early 1990s she has been studying the relationship between the structure and function of redox protein complexes involved in photosynthesis (I.e. PSII, cytochromes) among other, and more recently the role of intrinsic ductiliity and plasticity of proteins in organismal complexity, multicellularity and evolution. She has led science outreach projects. She is currently member of SEBBM and editor-in chief of SEBBM Journal.

Glycobiology
I am a postdoctoral fellow at the Biochemistry Department of the University of Geneva (UNIGE) and my work focuses on understanding lipid diversity and uncovering new lipid functions using multidisciplinary approaches (membrane biophysics, lipidomics, cell biology). I have also co-founded and chaired the Postdoc Association of UNIGE to work towards strengthening the links between postdoctoral fellows and creating a more collaborative and safe work environment. Advocate for equity in science.

I am the FEBS Events Associate – Advanced Courses, Congress, 3+ at FEBS, supporting the delivery of those events. Previously I was the Communications and Digital Platforms Associate, also at FEBS, and worked on platforms such as the FEBS Network and FEBS website.
Before joining FEBS I managed the grant programmes of a number of UK research charities, mainly in the field of cancer, as well as supported the fundraising at those organisations. I also developed e-learning resources at the Institute of Cancer Research. I have a BSc in Biochemistry and an MSc in Nutrition. After years in London I have now moved back to Spain.
