My primary research focuses on the ecological impact of microplastics in freshwater and marine ecosystems of central and central Pacific Mexico. I am particularly interested in the quantification of microplastics in abiotic matrices (e.g., water and sediment) and biotic samples (e.g., fish, birds, zooplankton, and insects). Additionally, I investigate the histological, physiological, and immunological effects of these emerging contaminants on biological models, especially fish and insects.
