Doctor Georgina Alarcón Angeles is currently a Professor in the Department of Biological Systems located at the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana (UAM) Xochimilco Campus. She did her Ph.D. (2008) at Iztapalapa Campus of UAM, on the topic: Study of dopamine and development of the quantitative electrochemical method. Professor Alarcón did her postdoctoral work (2009) at the Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (Spain) and at the Materials Department of Azcapotzalco Campus of UAM in the field of development, characterization, and application of nanostructured electrochemical biosensors.

She is a member of the National System of Researchers (Level I), a member of the CONACYT Registry of Accredited Evaluators (RCEA) in Area 2 "Biology and Chemistry", with registration number RCEA-02-19120. She was invited and a fellow of the academic network ALFA-BioSenIntg, Network Funded by the European program ALFA 2007, Autonomous University of Barcelona. Member of the organizing committee of the 2nd School of Bioanalytical Nanotechnology". Member of Evaluation Committee of the Blanc Inter II - SIMI 6 (2012 ) program of the French National Research Agency (ANR) (2012). Evaluator of research projects of Fondo SEP-CONACyT. He is a reviewer of scientific articles in journals such as: Sociedad Química de México, IEEE Sensors Journal, and Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry Journal. He is an advisor for research projects in the summer research program of the Mexican Academy of Sciences.

Professor Alarcón's research focuses on the study and chemical characterization of molecules related to biological and environmental systems, as well as the development, design, and application of nanotechnology for the development of electrochemical (bio) sensors. As a result of her research, she has published in international indexed journals about 40 articles, and four chapters of scientific books with international publishers such as Elsevier and Wiley, among which stand out two reviews by invitation: a) 2-dimensional nanomaterials for application in Biosensors, b) Nanomaterials applied to the interaction of drugs with DNA. She obtained the research award, granted by the CBI division of the UAM, in 2009. She has more than 750 citations.
