Welcome to Carla Leiva Rodríguez

We are delighted to welcome Carla Leiva, Rodríguez for a research internship in the framework of a collaborative project between the UMR PhAN, the Department of Neonatology at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, and the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Chile. Carla is a nutritionist specialised in clinical paediatrics. She possesses a Master's degree in nutritional sciences and is currently preparing a PhD in the same field. During her stay at UMR PhAN, Carla will be contributing to research aimed at determining the mechanisms involved in the beneficial effects of maternal DHA supplementation during pregnancy on the health of the offspring using, in particular, a bio-collection of human plasma and milk. This research is jointly coordinated by Paola Casanello from the Catholic University of Chile and Francisco Bolaños from PhAN.
