Profile

Professor María Luisa de Lourdes Pérez González pursued her undergraduate studies in Pharmaceutical Chemistry with a specialization in Microbiological Biochemistry at the Faculty of Chemistry of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) from 1981 to 1985. She conducted her research from 2001 to 2003 to obtain a master’s degree in Drugs and Medicine at the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil. She completed her doctoral degree in Biological and Health Sciences at the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana (UAM) in 2022, focusing on the study and development of nanoemulsions as nano systems for transporting all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA).

Her research demonstrated the stability and cytotoxic activity of these nanoemulsions in lung cancer cell lines, while showing low cytotoxicity in normal lung cells. This work has significant implications for the application and nanoencapsulation of ATRA and other lipid-soluble substances in medications, food, and cosmetics.

Currently, she serves as a Professor-Researcher in the Department of Biological Systems within the Division of Biological and Health Sciences (DCBS) at the Xochimilco Campus of UAM since January 1, 1995. Since December 2017, she has been responsible for Laboratory 111 of Dermopharmacy and Cosmetology at UAM and coordinates UAM Projects for the Design and Optimization of Dispersed Transport Systems (SDT) applied in Dermopharmacy and Cosmetology from 2016 to 2026.

His scientific output comprises 10 research articles and 12 dissemination articles, along with 1 national patent and 1 book chapter titled "Stability Evaluation of Cosmetic Products" in the book "Cosmetology in Practice: A Guide for Healthcare Professionals," published by Bentham Books. Additionally, he has supervised 50 undergraduate theses and final undergraduate projects to date. Furthermore, he is currently supervising master's and doctoral theses, collaborating with academic colleagues from Sao Paulo State University, Araracuara Campus, Brazil.
Academic Background: In 2023, I conducted a Research Stay at Sao Paulo State University, Brazil, and at the University of Valencia, Spain. I have pursued Continuing Education courses, including 2 diplomas, 9 courses in statistics, and 40 academic update courses throughout my professional career.

Industrial Experience: My industrial experience includes research roles in development of products at Avon Cosmetics, Brazil, from 2001 to 2003, as well as management position at House of Fuller, Mexico, in 1998. Additionally, I served as a Senior Chemist at Avon Products, Mexico, from 1985 to 1993, specializing in focusing on production industrial, in scaling up production batches and research and development of products new. In Farmaitalia Carlo Erba work with analysis of raw materials and finished products from 1983 to 1985, and as an Analytical Chemist at Wyeth-Vales from 1982 to 1983

International Experience: I have served as an Evaluation Jury member on 5 occasions from 2007 to 2013 and held the position of President and Scientific Evaluation Committee of the Latin American Congress of Cosmetic Chemists (COLAMIQC) from 2007 to 2015. Additionally, I have participated in conferences at both national and international levels, delivering 23 keynote speeches, 40 lectures, and 25 presentations.

International Agreements: I have established International Agreements with Sao Paulo State University, Brazil; the University of Antioquia, Colombia; and the University of Valencia, Spain.
Congress Organization: I have organized 10 national and 8 international congresses.
