MSc Researcher in Cancer Biology, National Cancer Institute, Cairo University
Cancer Biology & Immunology Researcher | MSc. Cancer Biology, National Cancer Institute, Cairo University
Interdisciplinary researcher working at the intersection of cancer biology, cancer immunology, molecular biology, and multi-omics. My research interests focus on T-cell biology, tumor–immune interactions, tumor microenvironment, immune cell plasticity, and molecular mechanisms shaping cancer progression and therapeutic response.
I combine computational analysis, literature-based research, and hypothesis-driven approaches to investigate regulatory mechanisms in cancer and immunity, with a growing focus on integrating these approaches with experimental cancer research.
I am also engaged in Open Science, preprints, open-source research tools, and community peer review, with an interest in reproducible and accessible biomedical research.
Irene Diaz-Moreno
Chair of the FEBS Excellence Awards and Fellowships Committee, University of Seville - CSIC
Dr. Irene Díaz-Moreno is Full Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the Institute of Chemical Research of the Scientific Research Centre Isla de la Cartuja – cicCartuja, in Seville (Spain). She was awarded with her Ph.D. with European mention from the University of Seville in 2005. Dr. Irene Díaz-Moreno has worked in collaboration with groups at the Universities of Göteborg (Sweden) and Leiden (The Netherlands) on molecular recognition between metalloproteins involved in electron-transfer processes. She was an EMBO postdoctoral fellow (2006–2008) at the NIMR-MRC in London (UK), working on the regulatory mechanisms of mRNA decay by RNA-binding proteins. In 2010, she got a permanent position at the University of Seville, where she is developing research projects on Biointeractomics field, as well as on the post-translational regulation of biological macromolecules.
