Biography
Carmen Arribas Mocoroa graduated from the Faculty of Biological Sciences of the University Complutense of Madrid. She completed her doctorate at the Center for Molecular Biology of Autonomous University of Madrid, on the molecular characterization of Ubiquitin in Drosophila. In 1991 she joined the University of Castilla-La Mancha, obtaining the rank of Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology in the Year 1994. Since joining UCLM, Carmen Arribas has developed her research work In the study of the molecular mechanisms that are altered with age and that are responsible for the onset of type 2 diabetes, as well as the role of Nutritional restriction in the restoration of these alterations.
Research Interest
The research work of Carmen Arribas Mocoroa is carried out within the group of Research "Diabetes and Obesity with Aging", insulin resistance.
