Biography
Dr. Irene Cervelló is a full-time investigator at FIVI-INCLIVA and Laboratory Manager & Endometrial Stem Cell and Bioengineering Research Group Leader at the IVI Foundation Research Department. She obtained her Bachelor’s degree in Biology in 2000, and her doctorate degree as “cum laude” with extraordinary prize in 2008, in the Pediatrics, Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department at the University of Valencia School of Medicine. During her post-doctoral training, she was a visiting scholar for five months at the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine in North Carolina), USA, where she also performed tasks related to the revision of scientific articles and R&D project evaluations (Well Being of Women – ENGLAND and National Science Center-POLONIA).
