Madaí Sánchez-Galindo is
a Senior Research Fellow at the National Institute for Forestry, Agriculture,
and Livestock Research (INIFAP), currently based at the Gulf of Mexico Regional
Research Center (CIRGOC), within the Cotaxtla Experimental Station. She earned
her Bachelor's degree in Irrigation Engineering from the Autonomous University
of Chapingo in 2010, followed by both a Master's and a Ph.D. in Hydrosciences
from the Colegio de Postgraduados. Over the course of her career, Dr. Madaí has
developed extensive expertise in hydrological modeling, with a particular focus
on assessing the effects of diverse soil management practices on water yield,
sediment transport, crop productivity, and agrochemical dynamics. Her work
spans complex, large-scale watersheds with heterogeneous land use and soil
types. Driven by a strong commitment to applied research and knowledge
transfer, she has actively contributed to technical training programs across
multiple sectors and has published her findings in peer-reviewed scientific
journals. Her current research at INIFAP centers on enhancing water
productivity in sugarcane systems, aiming to improve both the sustainability
and efficiency of agricultural production. In recognition of her scientific
contributions, Dr. Madaí was admitted in 2025 as a Candidate Member of Mexico’s
National System of Researchers, underscoring her commitment to advancing
research with national relevance.
