Biola M. Javierre

Group Leader

​Born in 1983 in Sabiñánigo (Huesca, Spain), Biola studied Biology and Biochemistry at the University of Navarra (2006) and received her PhD in Molecular Biology (Epigenetics) from the Autonomous University of Madrid in 2011, where she worked under the supervision of Dr.  Manel Esteller and Dr. Esteban Ballestar at the CNIO.  She performed her postdoctoral training at the Chromatin Dynamics Lab with Peter Fraser in Cambridge (UK) from 2012 to 2017. Since 2019, Biola is a Junior PI at the Josep Carreras Leukaemia Research Institute (IJC), first as a Ramon y Cajal fellow, and then as a Junior PI La Caixa. In addition, Biola is part of the Bioinfo4Women Program at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center. In 2019, UNESCO and L’Oréal Women in Science Foundation recognised Biola as one of the fifteen most promising young women scientists worldwide. Biola loves running although she doesn't have much time due to her little trouble makers.
