Top SchoolSantiago Montero-mendieta is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences with 11 years of experience applying genomics and bioinformatics to questions of fish evolution and adaptation. He has led multiple projects, secured over 1.1M RMB in competitive funding, and discovered genomic mechanisms of adaptation in an allotetraploid cavefish while actively investigating chemoreceptor gene evolution. His PhD work produced novel pipelines for non-model organism genomics and resulted in eight peer-reviewed publications and international collaboration with Uppsala University. Comfortable at the bench and in silico, he bridges molecular techniques and large-scale genomic analyses to tackle evolutionary questions in natural populations.
