After getting his PhD in biochemistry by the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), he joined the Research Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology in the same university, undertaking studies on Molecular Biology and Biotechnology and becoming one of the most important researchers working in the development of techniques for the use and characterization of the cell genetic material. Biochemistry is the study of the chemical processes in living Organisms It deals with the Structure and function of cellular components such as The National Autonomous University of Mexico (in Spanish: Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México UNAM) is a Public university based Molecular biology is the study of Biology at a molecular level Biotechnology is Technology based on Biology, especially when used in Agriculture, Food science, and Medicine.
His studies have significantly contributed the design, construction and characterization of molecular vehicles for the transfer and expression of DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid). Deoxyribonucleic acid ( DNA) is a Nucleic acid that contains the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all known In 1977 he worked in the production of human proteins like insulin and somatostatin in bacteria using genetic engineering techniques.
